We calculate the twist-4 corrections to the integral of $g_1(x,Q^2)$ in the framework of QCD sum rules using an interpolating nucleon field which contains explicitly a gluonic degree of freedom. This information can be used together with…

Perturbation theory in the nonperturbative QCD vacuum and the non-Abelian Stokes theorem, representing a Wilson loop in the SU(2) gluodynamics as an integral over all the orientations in colour space, are applied to a derivation of the…
In recent papers, we have established the existence of gauge-invariant decomposition of nucleon spin, each term of which can be related to known high-energy deep-inelastic-scattering observables. A subtlety remains, however, for the…
In recent decades, the spin and transverse momentum of quarks and gluons were found to play integral roles in the structure of the nucleon. Simultaneously, the onset of gluon saturation in hadrons and nuclei at high energies was predicted…
We show transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs) for spin-1 hadrons including twist-3 and 4 functions by taking the decomposition of a quark correlation function in the Lorentz-invariant way with the conditions of…
We start from an MIT-bag model calculation which provides information about the constituent quark distributions in the nucleon. The constituent quarks, however, are themselves considered as complex objects whose partonic substructure is…
We derive the complete twist-3 single-spin-dependent cross section for semi-inclusive DIS, $ep^\uparrow\to e\pi X$, associated with the complete set of the twist-3 quark-gluon correlation functions in the transversely polarized nucleon,…
We study the Sivers asymmetry in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering: the three-gluon correlation function contribution. At the cross section level, we establish the matching between the twist-3 collinear factorization approach and the…
We have calculated the NLO corrections for the leading twist amplitude of the reaction $\gamma^*\gamma\to\pi\pi$ at large virtuality of the photon and at $W^2\ll Q^2$. With a simple model for the two-pion quark and gluon distribution…
We study the contribution of the twist-3 fragmentation function to the single transverse-spin asymmetry in SIDIS within the framework of the collinear factorization. Using the Ward-Takahashi identity in QCD, we establish the collinear…
The link between BFKL physics and twist-two operators involves an analytical continuation in the spin of the operators away from the physical even integer values. Typically this is done only after obtaining an analytical result for integer…
We investigate the possibility to draw conclusions on the sign of the spin-dependent gluon distribution, $\Delta G(x, Q^2)$, from existing polarized DIS data. The spin-dependent parton distributions $\Delta u_v, \Delta d_v, \Delta {\bar u},…

The resummation of $O(\alpha_s^{l+1} \ln^{2l} x)$ terms in the evolution equation of the singlet part of $g_1(x,Q^2)$ is carried out. The corresponding singlet evolution kernels are calculated explicitely. The leading small-$x$ contribution…
A description of the generalized Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn sum rules for proton, neutron and deuteron is suggested. The proton consideration confirms the earlier conjecture, that the structure function $g_T$ features a smooth $Q^2-$dependence,…
The proton spin crisis still remains an unsolved problem in particle physics. It is suggested in the literature that the gauge invariant spin and orbital angular momentum of the quark and the gauge invariant total angular momentum of the…
