abstract
We formulate the momentum-space Dokshitzer-Gribov-Lipatov-Altarelli-Parisi (DGLAP) evolution equations for structure functions measurable in deeply inelastic scattering. We construct a six-dimensional basis of structure functions that allows for a full three flavor structure and thereby provides a way to calculate perturbative predictions for physical cross sections directly without unobservable parton distribution functions (PDFs) and without the associated scheme dependence. We derive the DGLAP equations to first non-zero order in strong coupling $\alpha_s$, but the approach can be pursued to arbitrary order in perturbation theory. We also numerically check our equations against the conventional PDF formulation.

Factorisation schemes for proton PDFs
All common NLO factorisation schemes for proton PDFs are special cases of a single discrete family, and scheme choice can shift LHC jet predictions by up to 20-30%.

Next-to-leading order evolution of structure functions without PDFs
The authors build a complete NLO momentum-space DGLAP evolution for a six-observable physical basis of DIS structure functions and compare its numerical results with conventional PDF-based evolution.
