New results on small-x resummation for splitting functions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2026-03-04 v1

Abstract

We revisit the basic steps necessary to obtain next-to-leading-logarithmic accurate small-xx results for the DGLAP splitting functions, and their implementations within the HELL framework. We derive new analytical all-order results for the leading-logarithmic gggg anomalous dimension, the qgqg and gggg finite Green functions, and most importantly for the qgqg anomalous dimension, which allows us to arrive for the first time at a properly resummed qgqg splitting kernel. We use these results as cornerstones of a new implementation of small-xx splitting-function resummation which is more solid and numerically better behaved with respect to those available thus far. All of these novelties are included in the upcoming 4.0 version of HELL.
