    • 2015, Xiaonu Xiong, Jian-Hui Zhang, “One-loop matching for transversity generalized parton distribution”, in arXiv[1]:
      Recent developments showed that light cone parton distributions can be studied by investigating the large momentum limit of the so-called quasiparton distributions, which are defined in terms of spacelike correlators, and therefore can be readily computed on the lattice.
