We report the first nucleon gluon parton distribution function (PDF) using Large-Momentum Effective Theory (LaMET). We compute the matching coefficients for the gluon operator with the best signal to perform hybrid-renormalization and matching to the lightcone at the one-loop level. We demonstrate that with the proper Wilson coefficients in place, the counterterms for the renormalization are...

We report on recent progress in calculating gluon parton distribution functions (PDFs) using Large-Momentum Effective Theory (LaMET) combined with a self-renormalization approach to address the renormalization of gluon operators. Our study uses three HISQ ensembles with lattice spacings of $a = \{0.0888, 0.1207, 0.1510\}$ fm and a valence pion mass of $M_\pi \approx$ 310 MeV, with continuum...

We use the ensemble C24P29 provided by the CLQCD collaboration, insert the topological current using the proton external state of the momentum smear under the Coulomb gauge of the $5-\mathrm{HYP}$ smear, extract the matrix elements to calculate the gluon helicity under lattice QCD, and the calculation proves that different components of the topological currents $𝐾^\mu$ can be used to give...

This work presents a generalization of the asymmetric-frame approach to generalized parton distributions that explicitly includes longitudinal momentum transfer, enabling studies at nonzero skewness $\xi$. The method reorganizes nucleon matrix elements into Lorentz-invariant, frame-independent amplitudes -- an extension of our earlier $\xi=0$ work in unpolarized, helicity, and transversity...

Momentum conservation in the nucleon is examined in terms of continuous flow of the momentum current density (or in short, momentum flow), which receives contributions from both kinetic motion and interacting forces involving quarks and gluons. While quarks conduct momentum flow through their kinetic motion and the gluon scalar (anomaly) contributes via pure interactions, the gluon stress...

Traditional approaches on studying the $x$-dependence through Large Momentum Effective Theory (LaMET) for GPDs are calculating non-local matrix elements in the symmetric frame. Recently, the novel approach of calculating GPDs in the asymmetric frame through a parameterization of the matrix elements, using Lorentz-invariant amplitudes, has been conducted for the unpolarized...

We systematically investigated the inverse discrete Fourier transform of quasi-distributions from the perspective of inverse problem theory. Mathematically, we have demonstrated that this transformation satisfies two of Hadamard’s well-posedness criteria, existence and uniqueness of the solution, but critically violates the stability requirement. To address this instability, we employed and...

It is well-known that in the study of mixing between nonlocal gluon and quark bilinear operators there exists an ambiguity when relating coordinate space and momentum space results, which can be conveniently resolved through Mellin moments matching in both spaces. In this work, we show that this ambiguity is due to the lack of a proper regularization prescription of the singularity that arises...

In this talk, we will present the exact expansions at the next-to-leading order in the $1/N$ expansion for a space-like structure function in the 2D large-N Gross-Neveu model, in the Bjorken and the threshold limits.
The space-like structure function is similar to the lattice-calculable quasi-PDFs. As such, the exact expansion in the Bjorken limit allows a non-trivial first principle...

Recently, a novel approach has been suggested to compute parton distributions through the use of boosted correlators fixed in the Coulomb gauge from lattice QCD, within the framework of Large-Momentum Effective Theory (LaMET). This approach circumvents the need for Wilson lines, potentially enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of lattice QCD calculations significantly. In this study, we...

The Collins-Soper (CS) kernel may be obtained through the TMD soft function by formulating the Wilson line in terms of 1-dimensional auxiliary fermion fields on the lattice. Our computation takes place in the region of the lattice that corresponds to the “spacelike” region in Minkowski space, i.e., Collins' scheme. We explore two methods for obtaining the CS kernel. The "ratio method"; which...

Designing good schemes to connect bare operators used in Lattice-QCD to perturbatively defined schemes (such as MSbar) is crucial for Lattice-QCD calculations. Operators containing Wilson Lines (for example those required for a quasi-pdf) contain an additional power divergence in the length of the Wilson Line. In this talk, I'll introduce gauge invariant position-space renormalization schemes...

Heavy meson light-cone distribution amplitudes (LCDAs) are essential nonperturbative quantities that characterize the internal dynamics of heavy mesons. They play a crucial role in the theoretical description of heavy meson (B or D) exclusive decays. However, due to the intrinsic challenges of nonperturbative QCD, first-principles calculations of heavy meson LCDAs have been notoriously...

Among other approaches developed in recent years, four-point functions provide access to the $x$ dependence of parton distribution functions (PDFs).
