Recursion relations for the multiparton collinear limit and splitting functions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2012-10-03 v1 High Energy Physics - Theory

Abstract

We present a systematic method to evaluate the splitting functions for tree-level QCD processes where m partons approach the collinear limit. The splitting functions are computed by deriving on-shell recursion equations, which are similar to the Berends-Giele recursion relations for off-shell currents.
