Positivity constraints on photon structure functions
arXiv:hep-ph/0110014 · doi:10.1016/S0370-2693(01)01279-5
Abstract
We investigate the positivity constraints for the structure functions of both virtual and real photon. From the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality we derive three positivity conditions for the general virtual photon case, which reduce, in the real photon case, to one condition relating the polarized and unpolarized structure functions.
