contents We investigate the consistency between the collinear twist-3 factorization and the transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) factorization for the transversely polarized hyperon production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering, $ep\to eΛ^\uparrow X$. In particular, we focus on the contributions from the twist-3 fragmentation functions (FFs) and the TMD polarizing FF in the region of the hyperon's intermediate transverse momentum $P_T$, $Λ_{\rm QCD}\ll P_T\ll Q$, where both frameworks are valid. In this region the polarizing FF can be expressed in terms of the twist-3 FFs including the purely gluonic ones, and the resulting TMD factorization formula for $ep\to eΛ^\uparrow X$ agrees with the small-$P_T$ limit of the corresponding twist-3 cross section. This matching of the two calculations indicates that the two frameworks describe the same effect in QCD and provide complementary frameworks for the process in different kinematic regions.
