Parton Distributions in the Virtual Photon Target and Factorization   Scheme Dependence
  We investigate parton distributions in the virtual photon target, both polarized and unpolarized, up to the next-leading order (NLO) in QCD. Parton distributions can be predicted completely up to NLO, but they are factorization-scheme-dependent. We analyze parton distributions in several factorization schemes and discuss their scheme dependence. Particular attentions are paid to the axial anomaly effect on the first moments of the polarized quark parton distributions, and also to the large-$x$ behaviors of polarized and unpolarized parton distributions.
