Resumen:
We point out that perturbat ive evolut ion in QCD at three loops generates a strange-antistrange asymmetrys in the nucleon sea just from the fact that the nucleon has nonvanishing up and down quark valence densities. The recently computed three- loop splitting functions allow for an estimate of this effect. We find that a fairly sizable asymmetry may be generated. Results for analogous asymmetries in the heavy-quark sector are also presented.
