Universal continuum limit of non-perturbative lattice non-singlet moment evolution

Abstract

We present evidence for the universality of the continuum limit of the scale dependence of the renormalization constant associated with the operator corresponding to the average momentum of non-singlet parton densities. The evidence is provided by a non-perturbative computation in quenched lattice QCD using the Schrödinger Functional scheme. In particular, we show that the continuum limit is independent of the form of the fermion action used, i.e. the Wilson action and the non-perturbatively improved clover action.
