Lattice QCD allows computations of moments of structure functions from first principles. An overview of the present status of the calculations is given. Recent results and future perspectives are discussed.
We investigate the perturbative and nonperturbative renormalization of composite operators in lattice QCD restricting ourselves to operators that are bilinear in the quark fields (quark-antiquark operators). These include operators which…
We demonstrate that lattice QCD calculations can be made $10^3$--$10^6$ times faster by using very coarse lattices. To obtain accurate results, we replace the standard lattice actions by perturbatively-improved actions with tadpole-improved…
Perturbative estimates of operator coefficients for improved lattice actions are becoming increasingly important for precision simulations of many hadronic observables. Following previous work by Dimm, Lepage, and Mackenzie, we consider the…
We present a novel strategy to renormalize lattice operators in QCD+QED, including first order QED corrections to the non-perturbative evaluation of QCD renormalization constants. Our procedure takes systematically into account the mixed…

In this paper we present one-loop results for the renormalization of nonlocal quark bilinear operators, containing a staple-shaped Wilson line, in both continuum and lattice regularizations. The continuum calculations were performed in…
We calculate the O(g^2 a) mixing coefficients of bilinear quark operators in lattice QCD using a standard perturbative evaluation of on-shell Green's functions. Our results for the plaquette gluon action are in agreement with those…
We propose a non-perturbative method for computing the renormalization constants of generic composite operators. This method is intended to reduce some systematic errors, which are present when one tries to obtain physical predictions from…
We present preliminary results of a calculation of the QCD renormalization constants (RCs) for quark bilinear operators, evaluated non-perturbatively on the lattice in the RI'-MOM scheme. The calculation is performed by using dedicated…
Flavor singlet and non-singlet axial Ward identities are investigated using the Wilson formulation of lattice QCD with Clover O(a)-improvement, which breaks explicitly chiral symmetry. The matching at one-loop order of all the relevant…
We compute several matrix elements of dimension-six four-fermion operators and extract their B-parameters. The calculations have been performed with the tree-level Clover action at $\beta = 6.0$. The renormalization constants and mixing…
We compute the ratio Lambda_L/Lambda_MS, where the scale parameter Lambda_L is associated with a lattice formulation of QCD. We consider a 3-parameter family of gluon actions, which are most frequently used for O(a) improvement a` la…

By making use of Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory (NSPT) we can compute renormalization constants for Lattice QCD to high orders, e.g. three or four loops for quark bilinears. We report on the status of our computations, which…
We briefly review and compare three methods (one perturbative, one based on Ward Identities and one non-perturbative) for the calculation of the renormalization constants of lattice operators. The following results are presented: (a) non…
