In this paper I show that it is possible to use Regge theory to constrain the initial parton distribution functions of a global DGLAP fit. In this approach, both quarks and gluons have the same high-energy behaviour which may also be used…
The structure of generalized parton distributions is determined from light-front holographic QCD up to a universal reparametrization function $w(x)$ which incorporates Regge behavior at small $x$ and inclusive counting rules at $x \to 1$. A…
Relying on the polynomiality property of generalized parton distributions, which roots on Lorentz covariance, we prove that it is enough to know them at vanishing- and low-skewness within the DGLAP region to obtain a unique extension to…
Basing upon dual analytic models, we present arguments in favor of the parametrization of generalized parton distributions (GPD) in the form (x/g_0)^{(1-x)\tilde\alpha(t)}, where \tilde\alpha(t)=\alpha(t)-\alpha(0) is the nonlinear part of…
I discuss recent developments in the determination of parton distributions from global fits. I concentrate on the errors associated with these parton distributions and with the physical quantities which are determined in terms of them. I…
NLO QCD fits using the DGLAP formalism have been made to the high precision ZEUS $e^+p$ reduced cross-section data and to fixed target structure function data, in order to detrmine parton distribution functions and the value of…
This is the introductory part of my PhD thesis which consists of two parts, the separate introduction and four published articles. The introduction begins by a technically detailed description of the DGLAP evolution and the fast numerical…
Using a recursive algorithm to solve the renormalization group equations of N=1 QCD (DGLAP), we describe the most general supersymmetric evolution of the parton distributions. The analysis involves the regular DGLAP evolution, a partial…
Global fits for precision determinations of parton distributions, together with the highly correlated strong coupling $\alpha_s$, are presented up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) of QCD utilizing most world data (charm and jet…
Basic properties of Regge poles are reviewed. Regge poles are considered from both t-channel and s-channel points of view. The main part of the review is devoted to the Regge poles in QCD. The method of the Wilson-loop path integral is used…
A new method of extracting diffractive parton distributions is presented which avoids the use of Regge theory ansatz and is in much closer relation with the factorisation theorem for diffractive hard processes.
We present an analytical solution for the evolution of parton distributions incorporating mixed-order QCD $\otimes$ QED corrections, addressing both polarized and unpolarized cases. Using the Altarelli-Parisi kernels extended to mixed…
A new approach to global QCD analysis is developed. The main ingredients are two QCD-based evolution equations. The first one is the Balitsky-Kovchegov nonlinear equation, which sums higher twists while preserving unitarity. The second…

We analyse the latest H1 large rapidity gap data to obtain diffractive parton distributions, using a procedure based on perturbative QCD, and compare them with distributions obtained from the simplified Regge factorisation type of analysis.…

Recent CDF measurements of the inclusive cross section for a double parton scattering attach a great importance to any theoretical calculations of two-particle distribution functions. Using a parton interpretation of the leading logarithm…

In global PDF analyses, parton distribution functions (PDFs) are parametrised at a fixed input scale $Q_0$ and evolved to higher scales using the DGLAP equations. Since QCD evolution is fully determined within perturbation theory, the…
Compatibility of the Reggeized form of QCD multi-particle amplitudes with the s-channel unitarity requires fulfilment of an infinite number of the "bootstrap" relations. On the other hand, it turns out that fulfillment of all these…
