      A complete non-perturbative renormalization prescription for quasi-PDFs 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Cichy, K.; Constantinou, Martha; Hadjiyiannakou, Kyriakos; Jansen, K.; Panagopoulos, Haralambos G.; Steffens, F. (2017)
      In this work we present, for the first time, the non-perturbative renormalization for the unpolarized, helicity and transversity quasi-PDFs, in an RI′ scheme. The proposed prescription addresses simultaneously all aspects ...

      A lattice calculation of parton distributions 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Cichy, K.; Hadjiyiannakou, Kyriakos; Jansen, K.; Steffens, F.; Wiese, C. (Proceedings of Science (PoS), 2016)
      We present results for the x dependence of the unpolarized, helicity, and transversity isovector quark distributions in the proton using lattice QCD, employing the method of quasi-distributions proposed by Ji in 2013. ...

      Lattice calculation of parton distributions 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Cichy, K.; Drach, V.; Garcia-Ramos, E.; Hadjiyiannakou, Kyriakos; Jansen, K.; Steffens, F.; Wiese, C. (2015)
      We report on our exploratory study for the direct evaluation of the parton distribution functions from lattice QCD, based on a recently proposed new approach. We present encouraging results using N f = 2 + 1 + 1 twisted ...

      Parton distributions from lattice QCD with momentum smearing 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Cichy, K.; Constantinou, Martha; Hadjiyiannakou, Kyriakos; Jansen, K.; Steffens, F.; Wiese, C. (Proceedings of Science (PoS), 2016)
      In this work we continue our effort to explore a recent proposal, which allows light-cone distributions to be extracted from purely spatial correlations, being thus accessible to lattice methods. In order to test the ...

      Recent results for the proton spin decomposition from lattice QCD 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Constantinou, Martha; Hadjiyiannakou, Kyriakos; Kallidonis, Christos; Koutsou, Giannis; Jansen, K.; Panagopoulos, Haralambos G.; Steffens, F.; Vaquero, A.; Wiese, C. (Proceedings of Science (PoS), 2016)
      The exact decomposition of the proton spin has been a much debated topic, on the experimental as well as the theoretical side. In this talk we would like to report on recent non-perturbative results and ongoing efforts to ...

      Updated lattice results for parton distributions 

      Alexandrou, Constantia; Cichy, K.; Constantinou, Martha; Hadjiyiannakou, Kyriakos; Jansen, K.; Steffens, F.; Wiese, C. (2017)
      We provide an analysis of the x dependence of the bare unpolarized, helicity, and transversity isovector parton distribution functions (PDFs) from lattice calculations employing (maximally) twisted mass fermions. The x ...
