We show that the diffractive structure function is perturbatively calculable in the domain where the diffractive mass is small but still outside the resonance region. In this domain, which can be characterized by Lambda^2/Q^2 << 1-beta <<…
The low $x$ behaviour of the gluon density $xg(x,\mu^2)$ at scale $\mu^2=2.4$ GeV$^2$ is determined using exclusive $J/\psi$ production data from HERA and LHCb within the framework of collinear factorisation at next-to-leading order (NLO).…
Using the leading-twist approximation of the Wilson operator product expansion with "frozen" and analytic versions of the strong-coupling constant, we show that the Bessel-inspired behavior of the structure function F_2 and its slope\break…
We define a new variable flavour number scheme for use in deep inelastic scattering, motivated by the need to consistently implement high energy resummations alongside a fixed order QCD expansion. We define the DIS(chi) scheme at fixed…

A precise proton structure function F_2 at low x is measured. The data is interpreted in the framework of QCD with an extraction of gluon density xg. The charm contribution to F_2 is determined in an extended kinematic range. Neutral and…
I investigate what a direct measurement of the longitudinal structure function F_L(x,Q^2) could teach us about the structure of the proton and the best way in which to use perturbative QCD for structure functions. I assume HERA running at a…
Current PEFT methods for LLMs can achieve either high quality, efficient training, or scalable serving, but not all three simultaneously. To address this limitation, we investigate sparse fine-tuning and observe a remarkable improvement in…
Theoretical expectations concerning small $x$ behaviour of the spin dependent structure function $g_1$ are summarised. This includes discussion of the Regge pole model predictions and of the double $ln^2(1/x)$ effects implied by…
A systematic study is performed of the impact of the various resummed small-$x$ contributions to the anomalous dimensions and coefficient functions on the evolution of unpolarized structure functions in deep-inelastic scattering. The proton…
This article presents the results of a quantitative study of the small-x data at HERA, using the CCFM equation. The first step consists of choosing the version of the CCFM equation to be used, corresponding to selecting a particular subset…
We present consistently ordered calculations of the structure functions F_2(x,Q^2) and F_L(x,Q^2), in different expansion schemes. After discussing the standard expansion in powers of alpha_s(Q^2) we consider a leading-order expansion in…
I present some comments on the relationship between the small-$x$ behaviour of the parton (quark and gluon) densities and the scaling violation of the proton structure function $F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$.
The standard analytic solution to the DGLAP equation in Mellin space is improved by resumming the large x divergences. Explicit results are given to next-to-leading order and next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy. Numerically, the…

Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) lowers the computational and memory overhead of fine-tuning large models by updating a low-dimensional subspace of the pre-trained weight matrix. Albeit efficient, LoRA exhibits suboptimal convergence and…
