Large Nf methods for computing the perturbative structure of deep inelastic scattering
Abstract
The large Nf self consistency method is applied to the computation of perturbative information in the operator product expansion used in deep inelastic scattering. The O(1/Nf) critical exponents corresponding to the anomalous dimensions of the twist 2 non-singlet and singlet operators are computed analytically as well as the non-singlet structure functions. The results are in agreement with recent explicit perturbative calculations.
