Using techniques from the previous volume (Wilson Lines in Quantum Field Theory, 2014), an ab initio methodology is developed and practical tools for its implementation are presented. Emphasis is put on the implications of gauge invariance and path-dependence properties of transverse-momentum dependent parton density functions. The latter are associated with the QCD factorization approach to semi-inclusive hadronic processes, studied at currently operating and planned experimental facilities. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents:\u003c\/strong\u003e\nIntroduction\nParticle Number Operators in Quantum Mechanics and in Quantum Field Theory\nGeometry of Quantum Field Theories\nBasics of Wilson Lines in QCD\nGauge-Invariant Parton Densities\nSimplifying Wilson Line Calculations\nBrief Literature Guide\nConventions and Reference Formulae\nIntegrations\nBibliography\nIndex \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIgor Cherednikov\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eFrederik F.
