We study the small $x$ diffractive contribution to the spin--dependent proton structure function $g_1(x)$. We find that the $x\to 0$ behaviour of $ g_1(x)$ has a singular form like $1/(x^\alpha \ln^2(x))$ with $\alpha \sim 0.2-0.3$.
Total resummation of double- and single- logarithms of x contributing to the spin-dependent structure function g_1 ensures its steep rise at small $x$. In the asymptotic limit x ->0, the resummation leads to the Regge behavior of g_1 and…
The Standard Approach (SA) for description of the structure function g_1 combines the DGLAP evolution equations and Standard Fits for the initial parton densities. The DGLAP equations describe the region of large Q^2 and large x, so there…

I review recent theoretical results on polarized deep inelastic lepton nucleon scattering. Some specific issues, like $Q^2$ evolution of structure functions, the small $x$ behaviour, and the determination of polarized parton densities, are…

We present the results of the covariant spectator quark model applied to the nucleon structure function $f(x)$ measured in unpolarized deep inelastic scattering, and the structure functions $g_1(x)$ and $g_2(x)$ measured in deep inelastic…
We consider in detail the Q^2 -dependence of the DIS structure functions, with Q being the virtual photon momentum. Quite often this dependence is claimed to be originated by the Q^2-dependence of the QCD coupling. This leads to the small-x…
We propose the new approach for taking into account the Q2 dependence of measured asymmetry A_1. This approach is based on the similarity of the Q2 behaviour and the shape of the spin-dependent structure function g_1(x,Q^2) and spin…
We consider a new approach for taking into account the Q2 dependence of asymmetry A_1. This approach is based on the similarity of the Q2 behavior and the shape of the spin-dependent structure function g_1(x,Q^2) and spin averaged structure…

Deep inelastic structure functions $F_2^A(x)$ are investigated in a $Q^2$ rescaling model with parton recombination effects. We find that the model can explain experimentally measured $F_2^A(x)$ structure functions reasonably well in the…
