(a) A model for evolution starting with a nonperturbative hadronic LFWF. (b) Hadronization and evolution ending with a hadronic LFWF. The intermediate quark and gluon states are off the energy shell and thus off-the-invariant mass shell . In the off-shell domain , the intermediate quarks and gluons obey the DGLAP and ERBL QCD evolution. If a cluster of quarks and antiquarks satisfies , the intermediate state sees the color confinement interaction. The meson LFWF connects the intermediate state, which is off of the energy shell and thus off-the-invariant mass shell to the physical meson state with . The LF angular momentum is conserved at every vertex.
