Fracture functions from cut vertices
Abstract
Using a generalized cut vertex expansion we introduce the concept of an extended fracture function for the description of semi-inclusive deep inelastic processes in the target fragmentation region. Extended fracture functions are shown to obey a standard homogeneous DGLAP-type equation which, upon integration over t, becomes the usual inhomogeneous evolution equation for ordinary fracture functions.
