Abstract
Based on a solution of DGLAP evolution equations at small values of
Bjorken variable x, a simple analytic
approximation for the perturbative part of
so-called linearly polarized gluon density
is obtained at the leading order
of perturbation theory.
We demonstrate that
derived expressions reproduce the main features of complicated numerical
calculations
performed by the parametrization groups.
