On Algorithmic Statistics for space-bounded algorithms

Algorithmic statistics studies explanations of observed data that are good in the algorithmic sense: an explanation should be simple i.e. should have small Kolmogorov complexity and capture all the algorithmically discoverable regularities in the data. However this idea can not be used in practice because Kolmogorov complexity is not computable. In this paper we develop algorithmic statistics using space-bounded Kolmogorov complexity. We prove an analogue of one of the main result of `classic' algorithmic statistics (about the connection between optimality and randomness deficiences). The main tool of our proof is the Nisan-Wigderson generator.Comment: accepted to CSR 2017 conferenc

Non-local anomaly of the axial-vector current for bound states

We demonstrate that the amplitude $<\rho\gamma|\partial_\nu (\bar q\gamma_\nu \gamma_5 q)|0>$ does not vanish in the limit of zero quark masses. This represents a new kind of violation of the classical equation of motion for the axial current and should be interpreted as the axial anomaly for bound states. The anomaly emerges in spite of the fact that the one loop integrals are ultraviolet-finite as guaranteed by the presence of the bound-state wave function. As a result, the amplitude behaves like $\sim 1/p^2$ in the limit of a large momentum $p$ of the current. This is to be compared with the amplitude $$ which remains finite in the limit $p^2\to\infty$. The observed effect leads to the modification of the classical equation of motion of the axial-vector current in terms of the non-local operator and can be formulated as a non-local axial anomaly for bound states.Comment: revtex, 4 pages, numerical value for $\kappa$ in Eq.

Skewed parton distributions and the scale dependence of the transverse size parameter

We discuss the scale dependence of a skewed parton distribution of the pion obtained from a generalized light-cone wave function overlap formula. Using a simple ansatz for the transverse momentum dependence of the light-cone wave function and restricting ourselves to the case of a zero skewedness parameter, the skewed parton distribution can be expressed through an ordinary parton distribution multiplied by an exponential function. Matching the generalized and ordinary DGLAP evolution equations of the skewed and ordinary parton distributions, respectively, we derive a constraint for the scale dependence of the transverse size parameter, which describes the width of the pion wave function in transverse momentum space. This constraint has implications for the Fock state probability and valence distribution. We apply our results to the pion form factor.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures; version to appear in Phys. Rev.

Probing partonic structure in gamma* gamma -> pi pi near threshold

Hadron pair production gamma* gamma -> h hbar in the region where the c.m. energy is much smaller than the photon virtuality can be described in a factorized form, as the convolution of a partonic handbag diagram and generalized distribution amplitudes which are new non-perturbative functions describing the exclusive fragmentation of a quark-antiquark pair into two hadrons. Scaling behavior and a selection rule on photon helicity are signatures of this mechanism. The case where h is a pion is emphasized.Comment: 8 pages, 1 figure, LaTeX2

On the NLO Power Correction to Photon-Pion Transition Form Factor

We propose a perturbative evaluation for the next-to-leading-order (NLO) $O(1/Q^4)$ power correction to the photon-pion transition form factor. The effects of the NLO power correction are analyzed.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, Revtex, revised versio

Unbiased analysis of CLEO data at NLO and pion distribution amplitude

We discuss different QCD approaches to calculate the form factor F^{\gamma^*\gamma\pi}(Q^2) of the \gamma^*\gamma\to\pi^{0} transition giving preference to the light-cone QCD sum rules (LCSR) approach as being the most adequate. In this context we revise the previous analysis of the CLEO experimental data on F^{\gamma^*\gamma\pi}(Q^{2}) by Schmedding and Yakovlev. Special attention is paid to the sensitivity of the results to the (strong radiative) \alpha_s-corrections and to the value of the twist-four coupling \delta^2. We present a full analysis of the CLEO data at the NLO level of LCSRs, focusing particular attention to the extraction of the relevant parameters to determine the pion distribution amplitude, i.e., the Gegenbauer coefficients a_2 and a_4. Our analysis confirms our previous results and also the main findings of Schmedding and Yakovlev: both the asymptotic, as well as the Chernyak--Zhitnitsky pion distribution amplitudes are completely excluded by the CLEO data. A novelty of our approach is to use the CLEO data as a means of determining the value of the QCD vacuum non-locality parameter \lambda^2_q = / =0.4 GeV^2, which specifies the average virtuality of the vacuum quarks.Comment: 25 pages, 5 figures, 4 tables; format and margins corrected to fit page size; small changes in the text and correction of misprint

The target asymmetry in hard vector-meson electroproduction and parton angular momenta

The target asymmetry for electroproduction of vector mesons is investigated within the handbag approach. While the generalized parton distribution (GPD) H is taken from a previous analysis of the elctroproduction cross section, we here construct the GPD E from double distributions and constrain it by the Pauli form factors of the nucleon, positivity bounds and sum rules. Predictions for the target asymmetry are given for various vector mesons and discussed how experimental data on the asymmetry will further constrain E and what we may learn about the angular momenta the partons carry.Comment: 24 pages, 11 figures, late

Perturbative QCD factorization of πγ∗→γ(π)\pi \gamma^*\to \gamma(\pi) and B→γ(π)lνˉB\to \gamma(\pi)l\bar \nu

We prove factorization theorem for the processes $\pi\gamma^*\to\gamma$ and $\pi\gamma^*\to\pi$ to leading twist in the covariant gauge by means of the Ward identity. Soft divergences cancel and collinear divergences are grouped into a pion wave function defined by a nonlocal matrix element. The gauge invariance and universality of the pion wave function are confirmed. The proof is then extended to the exclusive $B$ meson decays $B\to\gamma l\bar\nu$ and $B\to\pi l\bar\nu$ in the heavy quark limit. It is shown that a light-cone $B$ meson wave function, though absorbing soft dynamics, can be defined in an appropriate frame. Factorization of the $B\to\pi l\bar\nu$ decay in $k_T$ space, $k_T$ being parton transverse momenta, is briefly discussed. We comment on the extraction of the leading-twist pion wave function from experimental data.Comment: 21 pages in Latex file, version to appear in Phys. Rev.
