Skewed distributions fixed by diagonal partons at small x,\xi and ${\gamma }^{\ast }p\to Vp$ at HERA

Abstract

We show that the skewed parton distributions are completely determined at small x and \xi by the conventional diagonal partons. We study the application to diffractive vector meson production at HERA.
