Based on both the constituent quark picture and the instanton model for QCD vacuum, we calculate the unpolarized and polarized gluon distributions in the constituent quark and in the nucleon. Our approach consists of two main steps. At the first step, we follow the Altarelli-Parisi (AP) approach[1] to calculate the gluon distributions inside the constituent quark generated by the perturbative quark-gluon interaction, the non-perturbative quarkgluon interaction, and the non-perturbative quark-gluon-pion anomalous chromomagnetic interaction. The nonperturbative interactions are related to the existence of the instantons, strong topological fluctuations of gluon fields, in the QCD vacuum. At the second step, the convolution model is applied to derive the gluon distributions in the nucleon.
