We show that the skewed parton distributions are completely determined at small x and \xi by the conventional diagonal partons. We study the application to diffractive vector meson production at HERA.
Possible interpretations of the HERA large-Q^2 data are reviewed briefly. The possibility of statistical fluctuations cannot be ruled out, and it seems premature to argue that the H1 and ZEUS anomalies are incompatible. The data cannot be…
Using a recursive algorithm to solve the renormalization group equations of N=1 QCD (DGLAP), we describe the most general supersymmetric evolution of the parton distributions. The analysis involves the regular DGLAP evolution, a partial…
It has been found that recent results on forward jet production from deep inelastic scattering can neither be reproduced by models which are based on leading order $\alpha_s$ QCD matrix elements and parton showers nor by next-to-leading…
We analize the renormalization group equations of supersymmetric QCD with N=1 for the evolution of parton distributions. For this purpose we develope a simple recursive algorithm in x-space to include both regular regions and supersymmetric…
We summarize recent progress in the resummation of perturbative evolution at small x. We show that the problem of incorporating BFKL small x logs in GLAP evolution is now completely solved, and that the main effect of small x resummation is…
These notes are a summary of our efforts to answer the question in the title. Our answer is in the affirmative as: (i) HERA data indicate a large value of the gluon structure function; (ii) no contradictions with the asymptotic predictions…
The forthcoming p+Pb run at the LHC will provide crucial in formation on the initial state effects of heavy ion collisions and on the gluon saturation phenomena. In turn, most of the saturation inspired phenomenology in heavy ion collisions…
In order to explain a striking symmetry of the HERA data for virtual photon-proton cross section, I propose a simple model based on the elementary 2-gluon exchange dipole-dipole cross section, and which exhibits geometric scaling. I also…
We show that the double asymptotic scaling of the HERA structure function data is consistent with pre-HERA data at larger $x$, soft pomeron behaviour at small $x$ and a sensible starting scale $Q_0$. We can thus actually calculate $F_2^p$…
We investigate the influence of higher twist corrections to deep inelastic structure functions in the low-$Q^2$ and small-$x$ HERA region. We review the general features of the lowest-order QCD diagrams which contribute to twist-4 at…
We study the impact of the QCD DGLAP evolution on the geometric scaling of the gluon distributions which is expected to hold at small x within the saturation models. To this aim we solve the DGLAP evolution equations with the initial…
We propose a systematic approximation scheme for solving GLAP evolution equations at small Bjorken-$x$. The approximate solutions interpolate smoothly between hard (singular as $x^{-(1+\lambda)}$, $\lambda> 0$) and soft (singular at most as…
We present a model of generalised parton distributions based on a forward ansatz in the DGLAP region. We discuss some aspects of the parametrisations, as the dependence in t, with factorised and non-factorised approaches, where t is the…
We investigate the Q^2 evolution of parton distributions at small x values, obtained in the case of flat initial conditions. The contributions of twist-two and (renormalon-type) higher-twist operators of the Wilson operator product…
We study the value of shadowing corrections (SC) in HERA kinematic region in Glauber - Mueller approach. Since the Glauber - Mueller approach was proven in perturbative QCD in the double logarithmic approximation (DLA), we develop the DLA…
We perform the first dipole picture fit to HERA inclusive cross section data using the full next-to-leading order (NLO) impact factor combined with an improved Balitsky-Kovchegov evolution including the dominant effects beyond leading…
Linear and non-linear QCD evolutions at high energy suffer from severe issues related to convergence, due to higher order corrections enhanced by large double and single transverse logarithms. We resum double logarithms to all orders by…
We analize the use of algorithms based in x-space for the solution of renormalization group equations of DGLAP-type and test their consistency by studying bounds among partons distributions - in our specific case Soffer's inequality and the…
We introduce a coupled pair of evolution equations for the unintegrated gluon distribution and the sea quark distribution which incorporate both the resummed leading $\ln (1/x)$ BFKL contributions and the resummed leading $\ln (Q^2)$ DGLAP…
