We extend our method of analytic ERBL evolution for the case of distribution amplitudes that have jumps at some points x = {zeta}{sub I} inside the support region 0 < x < 1. As an application of the method, we use it for evolution of the two-photon generalized distribution amplitude. Our approach has advantages over the standard method of expansion in Gegenbauer polynomials, which requires infinite number of terms in order to accuretly reproduce functions in the vicinity of singular points, and over the method of straightforward iteration of initial distribution with evolution kernel which produces logarithmically divergent terms at each iteration. In our method, the logarithmic singularities are summed from the start, which immediately produces a continuous curve, with only one or two iterations needed afterwards in order to get precise results.
