Abstract
We review the double asymptotic scaling phenomenon for the structure functions of the deepinelastic scattering process. We present an analytical parameterization of the contributions from the twist-two operators of the Wilson operator product expansion and power suppressed terms. Higher twist corrections to F 2 at small x are studied for the case of a flat initial condition for the twist-two QCD evolution in the next-to-leading order approximation. Higher twist terms are estimated using two different approaches: one motivated by BFKL and the other motivated by the renormalon formalism. The results of the latter approach are in very good agreement with deep inelastic scattering data from HERA.
