Generalized Parton Distributions from Lattice QCD

Kostas Orginos

Abstract

I review recent results on moments of Generalized Parton Distribution functions (GPDs) from Lattice QCD. In particular, I discuss the methodology of lattice calculations, and how various systematic errors arising in these calculations are controlled. I conclude with an overview of the roadmap towards precision non-perturbative determination of moments of GPDs, and discuss the potential impact to the extraction of GPDs form experiment.
