Jacobi evolution of structure functions: convergence and stability
arXiv:hep-ph/9901253 · doi:10.1016/S0375-9474(00)00219-0
Abstract
The Jacobi evolution method has been widely used in the QCD analysis of structure function data. However a recent paper claims that there are serious problems with its convergence and stability. Here we briefly review the evidence for the adequate convergence of the method; and show that there are errors in the above paper which undermine its conclusions.
