Small size instanton contributions to the quark quasi-PDF and matching kernel

preprint2021arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate the non-perturbative contribution of instantons to current matching kernels used in the context of the large momentum effective theory (LaMET). We derive explicitly these contributions using first principle semi-classical calculus for the unpolarized and polarized quark parton distributions and the matching kernel, and show that they are part of a trans-series expansion. These contributions are substantial at current lattice matching momenta.
