Abstract: The scheme and gauge dependence of the factorization property of the RG $$-function in the $SU(N_c)$ QCD generalized Crewther relation (GCR), which connects the non-singlet contributions to the Adler and Bjorken polarized sum rule functions, is investigated at the $mathcalO(a_s^4)$ level. In the gauge-invariant $moverlineMS$-scheme this property holds at least at this order. To study whether this property is true in all gauge-invariant schemes, we consider the $mMS$-like schemes in QCD and the QED-limit of the GCR in the $moverlineMS$-scheme and in the $mMOM$ and the $mOS$ schemes. In these schemes we confirm the existence of the $$-function factorization in the QCD and QED variants of the GCR. The problem of the possible $$-factorization in the gauge-dependent renormalization schemes in QCD is studied. We consider the gauge non-invariant $mmMOM$ and $mMOMgggg$-schemes and demonstrate that in the $mmMOM$ scheme at the $mathcalO(a_s^3)$ level the $$-factorization is valid for three values of the gauge parameter $xi$ only, namely for $xi=-3,-1$ and $xi=0$. In the $mathcalO(a_s^4)$ order of PT it remains valid only for case of the Landau gauge $xi=0$. The consideration of these two schemes for the QCD GCR allows us to conclude that the factorization of RG $$-function will always be implemented in any $mMOM$-like schemes with linear covariant gauge at $xi=0$ and $xi=-3$ at the $mathcalO(a_s^3)$ level. It is demonstrated that if factorization property for the $mMS$-like schemes is true in all orders of PT, as theoretically indicated, then the factorization will also occur in the arbitrary $mMOM$-like scheme in the Landau gauge in all orders of PT as well.
