Abstract

I present a highly efficient method for evolving parton distributions in perturbative QCD. The method allows evolving the parton distribution functions according to any of the commonly-used truncations of the evolution equations (which differ in their treatment of higher-order terms). I also give formulæ for computing crossing functions within the method.
