In the Framework of {\it{valon model}} we have calculated the parton distribution in a valon for both the polarized and unpolarized cases. These distributions are originated purely from the dressing of a valence quark in QCD and are common…
We review recent progress on lattice calculations of nucleon spin structure, including the parton distribution functions, form factors, generalization parton distributions, and recent developments in lattice techniques.
We prove factorization and gauge invariance of the twist-3 single-spin-dependent cross section in the leading order perturbative QCD, which was missing in the previous literature. We emphasize that the consistency relation from the Ward…
We study the semi-classical interpretation of the $x^3$ and $x^4$ moments of twist-3 parton distribution functions (PDFs). While no semi-classical interpretation for the higher moments of $g_T(x)$ and $e(x)$ was find, the $x^3$ moment of…

Quark mass effects are included in the calculation of polarized structure functions. In particular, the validity of fixed order perturbation theory and of massless evolution is studied in the framework of heavy quarks structure functions.…

We clarify the nonperturbative origin of the $\delta$-function singularity at $x = 0$ in the chiral-odd twist-3 distribution function $e(x)$ of the nucleon. We also compare a theoretical prediction for $e(x)$ based on the chiral quark…
We investigate the nucleon's transverse spin-dependent structure function g_2(x, Q^2) in the framework of the operator product expansion and the renormalization group. We construct the complete set of the twist-3 operators for the flavor…
We have computed the next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) contributions to the evolution of unpolarized parton distributions in perturbative QCD. In this talk, we briefly recall why this huge computation was necessary and outline how it was…
Some simple relations between unpolarized and polarized quark parton distributions have direct experimental consequences which will be presented here. In particular, we will see that it is possible to relate the deep inelastic structure…
A survey is given of recent developments on the resummed small-$x$ evolution, in a framework based on the renormalization group equation, of non--singlet and singlet structure functions in both unpolarized and polarized deep--inelastic…
We discuss the spin-dependent structure function $g_2(x,Q^2)$ in the framework of the operator product expansion. It is noted that the anomalous dimensions and coefficient functions for the twist-3 gluon-field-dependent operators depend on…
The fragmentation of a colored parton directly into a pair of colorless hadrons is a non-perturbative mechanism that offers important insights into the nucleon structure. Di-hadron fragmentation functions can be extracted from…
In the quantum statistical parton distributions approach proposed more than one decade ago to describe the parton structure, new properties are now understood, in particular, the relation between quarks and antiquarks which leads to very…
An updated next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD analysis of the spin asymmetries A_1^N(x,Q^2) and parton distributions delta f(x,Q^2) in longitudinally polarized deep-inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering is presented within the framework of the…

Off-forward structure functions of the pion are investigated in twist-two and twist-three approximation. A simple model is used for the pion, which allows to introduce finite size effects, while preserving gauge invariance. Results for the…
We report on the first calculation of the structure function g_1 in polarised deep-inelastic scattering to the third order in massless perturbative QCD. The calculation follows the dispersive approach already used for the corresponding…
