We construct small-$x$ evolution equations which can be used to calculate quark and anti-quark helicity TMDs and PDFs, along with the $g_1$ structure function. These evolution equations resum powers of $\alpha_s \, \ln^2 (1/x)$ in the…
A small-$x$ helicity evolution has been derived in 2016-18 and received an important modification in 2022. This article discusses its general framework and summarizes the recent theoretical developments, including the asymptotic behaviors…
The proton spin puzzle denotes the challenge of describing the proton's spin in terms of the angular momenta of the quarks and gluons which comprise it. These quarks and gluons carry a fraction $x$ of the proton's momentum. Contributions…

This dissertation highlights the contributions I have made to the field of theoretical nuclear physics, specifically in high-energy Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). High-energy QCD is a robust subject and my research is refined to the…
The proton spin puzzle is a longstanding problem in high-energy nuclear physics: how the proton spin distributes among the spin and orbital angular momenta of the quarks and gluons inside. Two of the unresolved pieces of the puzzle are the…
We generalize the Bartels-Ermolaev-Ryskin approach for the $g_1$ structure function at small-$x$ to determine the small-$x$ asymptotic behavior of the orbital angular momentum distributions in QCD. We present an exact analytical solution of…
We apply the valence quark model recently calculated for polarized proton to constrain the non-perturbative initial condition for the small-$x$ helicity evolution. The remaining free parameters are constrained by performing a global…
The small-$x$ quark helicity evolution equations at double-logarithmic order, with the kernel $\sim\alpha_s\ln^2(1/x)$, have been derived previously. In this work, we derive the single-logarithmic corrections to the equations, to order…
In this Letter, we analytically solve the evolution equations for the small-$x$ asymptotic behavior of the (flavor singlet) quark helicity distribution in the large-$N_c$ limit. These evolution equations form a set of coupled…
The contribution to proton helicity from the spins of quarks and gluons at small Bjorken $x$ can be conveniently studied through the small-$x$ helicity evolution. Recently, it has been employed in a global analysis that includes polarized…
We present the first-ever description the world data on the $g_1^{p,n}$ structure function at small Bjorken $x$ using evolution equations in $x$ derived from first principles QCD. This is a Monte-Carlo analysis within the JAM global…
Helicity of quarks and gluons inside the proton at small Bjorken $x$ is one of the missing pieces of the proton spin puzzle, with limited experimental results due to various challenges. To address the problem, we derive under the framework…
We perform a phenomenological study of helicity-dependent parton distribution functions (PDFs) using small-$x$ helicity evolution equations, incorporating for the first time single-inclusive jet production data in polarized proton-proton…
We determine the small-$x$ asymptotics of the gluon helicity distribution in a proton at leading order in perturbative QCD at large $N_c$. To achieve this, we begin by evaluating the dipole gluon helicity TMD at small $x$. In the process we…
We construct an exact analytic solution of the revised small-$x$ helicity evolution equations derived recently. The equations we solve are obtained in the large-$N_c$ limit (with $N_c$ the number of quark colors) and are double-logarithmic…

We present a numerical solution of the revised version of the small-$x$ helicity evolution equations at large $N_c$ and $N_f$. (Here $N_c$ and $N_f$ are the numbers of quark colors and flavors, respectively.) The evolution equations are…
We analyze the world polarized deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) and semi-inclusive DIS (SIDIS) data at low values of $x < 0.1$, using small-$x$ evolution equations for the flavor singlet and nonsinglet helicity parton distribution functions…
We construct a numerical solution of the recently-derived large-$N_c \& N_f$ small-$x$ helicity evolution equations with the aim to establish the small-$x$ asymptotics of the quark helicity distribution beyond the large-$N_c$ limit explored…
