Asymmetric Gluon Distributions and Hard Diffractive Electroproduction
read the original abstract
The ``asymmetric'' matrix element <p-r|G...G|p> that appears in the pQCD description of hard diffractive electroproduction does not coincide with that defining the gluon distribution function f_g(x). I outline a pQCD formalism based on a concept of the double distribution F_g(x,y), which specifies the fractions xp, yr, (1-y)r of the initial proton momentum p and the momentum transfer r, resp., carried by the gluons. For $t \equiv r^2 =0$, r is proportional to p: $r = \zeta p$, and it is convenient to parameterize the matrix element <p-r|G...G|p> by an asymmetric distribution function ${\cal F}_{\zeta}^g (X)$ depending on the total fractions $X \equiv x+y \zeta$ and $X-\zeta = x- (1-y) \zeta$ of the initial hadron momentum p carried by the gluons.I formulate evolution equations for ${\cal F}_{\zeta}^g (X)$, study some of their general properties and discuss the relationship between ${\cal F}_{\zeta}^g (X)$, F_g(x,y) and f_g(x).

The Gravitational Form Factor of the Pion in Perturbative QCD with a Dilaton Interaction
Anomaly-induced dilaton-like corrections in the hard kernel significantly modify pion GFFs at large Q^{2} within a factorization approach using Sudakov resummation and a Gaussian TMD wave function.

Gravitational form factors of light mesons from Basis Light-Front Quantization
Gravitational form factors of pion and kaon are computed in BLFQ; A(Q^2) agrees with lattice QCD while D(Q^2) is enhanced at low Q^2 due to small-x and zero-mode sensitivity in the truncated model.

GTMDs, orbital angular momentum, and pretzelosity
In the bag model, GTMD calculations are consistent, orbital angular momentum is tied to F_{1,4}^q through the Ji sum rule, and a deeper link to pretzelosity TMD is established.
