We present nonlinear corrections (NLCs) to the distribution functions at low values of x and $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 using the parametrization $$F_{2}(x,Q^{2})$$ F 2 ( x , Q 2 ) and $$F_{L}(x,Q^{2})$$ F L ( x , Q 2 ) . We use a direct method to extract nonlinear corrections to the ratio of structure functions and the reduced cross section in the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) approximation with respect to the parametrization method (PM). Comparisons between the nonlinear results with the bounds in the color dipole model (CDM) and HERA data indicate the consistency of the nonlinear behavior of the gluon distribution function at low x and low $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 . The nonlinear longitudinal structure functions are comparable with the H1 Collaboration data in a wide range of $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 values. Consequently, the nonlinear corrections at NNLO approximation to the reduced cross sections at low and moderate $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 values show good agreement with the HERA combined data. These results at low x and low $$Q^{2}$$ Q 2 can be applied to the LHeC region for analyses of ultra-high-energy processes.

We show that the nonlinear corrections to the longitudinal structure function can be tamed the singularity behavior at low x values, with respect to GLR-MQ equations. This approach can determined the shadowing longitudinal structure function based on the shadowing corrections to the gluon and singlet quark structure functions. Comparing our results with HERA data show that at very low x this behavior completely tamed by these corrections.

The behavior of the charm and bottom structure functions (F i k (x, Q 2 ), i=c,b; k=2,L) at small-x is considered with respect to the hard-Pomeron and saturation models. Having checked that this behavior predicate the heavy flavor reduced cross sections concerning the unshadowed and shadowed corrections. We will show that the effective exponents for the unshadowed and saturation corrections are independent of x and Q 2 , and also the effective coefficients are dependent to ln Q 2 compared to Donnachie-Landshoff (DL) and color dipole (CD) models.
