Abstract

For theoretically consistent determination of αs from jet rates in deep inelastic scattering the dependence on αs of parton distribution functions is in principle as important as that of hard scattering cross-sections. For the kinematical region accessible at HERA we investigate in detail numerical importance of these two sources of the αs dependence of jet rates.
