abstract
The generalized parton distributions, introduced nearly a decade ago, have emerged as a universal tool to describe hadrons in terms of quark and gluonic degrees of freedom. They combine the features of form factors, parton densities and distribution amplitudes--the functions used for a long time in studies of hadronic structure. Generalized parton distributions are analogous to the phase-space Wigner quasi-probability function of non-relativistic quantum mechanics which encodes full information on a quantum-mechanical system. We give an extensive review of main achievements in the development of this formalism. We discuss physical interpretation and basic properties of generalized parton distributions, their modeling and QCD evolution in the leading and next-to-leading orders. We describe how these functions enter a wide class of exclusive reactions, such as electro- and photo-production of photons, lepton pairs, or mesons. The theory of these processes requires and implies full control over diverse corrections and thus we outline the progress in handling higher-order and higher-twist effects. We catalogue corresponding results and present diverse techniques for their derivations. Subsequently, we address observables that are sensitive to different characteristics of the nucleon structure in terms of generalized parton distributions. The ultimate goal of the GPD approach is to provide a three-dimensional spatial picture of the nucleon, direct measurement of the quark orbital angular momentum, and various inter- and multi-parton correlations.

Conformal moments of the two-loop DVCS coefficient functions have been computed with a new technique.
Calculations of di-meson photoproduction amplitudes at leading order show cross sections up to 100 times larger than single-meson cases, enabling better GPD extraction.
Holographic fixed-j DDVCS amplitude structurally matches pQCD ±-basis Wilson coefficients via open/closed string channels and Gauss hypergeometric kernel at a single matching scale.
Holographic QCD achieves exact fixed-scale matching of the hadronic current-current correlator to the singlet conformal OPE Wilson coefficients in perturbative QCD via a factorized Compton amplitude with a Gauss hypergeometric kernel.
Computes kinematic twist-3, twist-4 and NLO alpha_s corrections to coherent DVCS on He-4 and extracts the first 3D quark-gluon tomography of the nucleus.
Analytical expressions for quark gravitational TMDs are derived in the LFQDM, verified against standard TMD relations, and linked to transverse pressure and shear-force distributions.
Presents leading-order calculations of exclusive dijet electroproduction cross sections via GPDs in double distribution model, highlighting valence contributions at large x_P and azimuthal modulations consistent with ZEUS data for beta greater than or equal to 0.4.
The authors use the two-flavor NJL model to obtain medium-modified constituent quark masses and then compute the in-medium pion electromagnetic form factor, distribution amplitude, and parton distribution function via light-cone wave functions, with DGLAP evolution applied.
Lattice fits to gluon gravitational form factors support the sigma meson as dilaton with new predictions for rho and delta, reinforcing evidence for scale symmetry in low-energy QCD.
T-odd leading-twist GTMDs in σ-space exhibit -t-dependent oscillations with transverse-longitudinal interference, while Sivers and Boer-Mulders Wigner distributions encode proton spin-transverse momentum correlations.
A neural network trained solely on integral observables from a known GPD model recovers the main features of the underlying distributions in a closure test.
Replacing the rapidity argument of the dipole amplitude with ln min{1/|x|, 1/|ξ|} and refining initial conditions for non-linear evolution can eliminate two R-factors in small-x shockwave calculations.
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.
Pion unpolarized quark GPDs at zero skewness are extracted from a data-driven fit to the electromagnetic form factor and PDFs using a parameterized form factor embedded in a PDF-plus-profile GPD framework.
Quantum advantage in hadronic tomography should be evaluated selectively for CFFs, GPDs, TMDs, and GTMDs because their light-front and real-time correlation functions create ill-posed inverse problems that quantum algorithms may address at algorithmic, computational, and inference levels.
