It is useful to describe a leading order parton shower as the solution of a linear equation that specifies how the state of the partons evolves. This description involves an essential approximation of a strong ordering of virtualities as the shower progresses from a hard interaction to softer interactions. If this is to be the only approximation, then the partons should carry color and spin and quantum interference graphs should be included. We explain how the evolution equation for this kind of a shower can be formulated. We discuss briefly our efforts to implement this evolution equation numerically.

We specify recursive equations that could be used to generate a lowest order parton shower for hard scattering in hadron-hadron collisions. The formalism is based on the factorization soft and collinear interactions from relatively harder interaction
s in QCD amplitudes. It incorporates quantum interference between different amplitudes in those cases in which the interference diagrams have leading soft or collinear singularities. It incorporates the color and spin information carried by partons emerging from a hard interaction. One motivation for this work is to have a method that can naturally cooperate with next-to-leading order calculations.
We have previously described a mathematical formulation for a parton shower based on the approximation of strongly ordered virtualities of successive parton splittings. Quantum interference, including interference among different color and spin state
s, was included. A practical numerical implementation strategy was left unspecified. In a subsequent paper, we showed that if we add the further approximations of taking only the leading color limit and averaging over spins, we obtain a shower evolution that can be implemented as a Markov process. In this paper, we outline a strategy for including the correlations induced by parton spins.

s, is included. In this paper, we add the further approximations of taking only the leading color limit and averaging over spins, as is common in parton shower Monte Carlo event generators. Soft gluon interference effects remain with this approximation. We find that the leading color, spin averaged shower in our formalism is similar to that in other shower formulations. We discuss some of the differences.
We present the determination of Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD) parton distributions from Monte Carlo parton showers. We investigate the effective TMD distributions obtained from the PYTHIA8 and HERWIG6 parton showers and compare them to the TMD
distributions determined within the Parton Branching method.
Initial state evolution in parton shower event generators involves parton distribution functions. We examine the probability for the system to evolve from a higher scale to a lower scale without an initial state splitting. A simple argument suggests
that this probability, when multiplied by the ratio of the parton distributions at the two scales, should be independent of the parton distribution functions. We call this the PDF property. We examine whether the PDF property actually holds using Pythia and Deductor. We also test a related property for the Deductor shower and discuss the physics behind the results.
