| Popis: | This work reviews recent developments in the Parton Branching (PB) method, focusing on its application to Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD) parton distributions and the implementation of TMD evolution equations in Monte Carlo generators. Key advancements include the inclusion of photon and heavy electroweak boson radiation in the evolution equations and their impact on collinear and TMD distributions. A detailed comparison of PB and Collins-Soper-Sterman formalisms highlights improvements in the accuracy of PB Sudakov form factors. The role of soft gluons, intrinsic transverse momentum, and the $z_M$ parameter in modelling non-perturbative effects is emphasized, with implications for inclusive distributions and Drell-Yan transverse momentum spectra. This review also addresses challenges in achieving consistency between forward and backward evolution.
