The Regge behaviour of the scattering amplitudes in perturbative QCD is governed in the generalized leading logarithmic approximation by the contribution of the color--singlet compound states of Reggeized gluons. The interaction between…
Soft and collinear radiation in collider processes can be described in a universal way, that is independent of the underlying process. Recent years have seen a number of approaches for probing whether radiation beyond the leading soft…
By using the Boltzmann equation describing the relaxation of colour excitations in the QCD plasma, we obtain effective amplitudes for the ultrasoft colour fields carrying momenta of order $g^2 T$. These amplitudes are of the same order in…
We examine Crewther's relation at high loop order in perturbative QCD and demonstrate how the relation is accommodated in gauge-parameter dependent schemes where the running of the gauge parameter has to be explicitly considered. Motivated…
We review techniques simplifying the analytic calculation of one-loop QCD amplitudes with many external legs, for use in next-to-leading-order corrections to multi-jet processes. Particularly useful are the constraints imposed by…
We explore the space of meromorphic amplitudes with extra constraints coming from the shape of the leading Regge trajectory. This information comes in two guises: it bounds the maximal spin of exchanged particles of a given mass; it leads…
The Regge limit of gauge-theory amplitudes and cross sections is a powerful theory tool for the study of fundamental interactions. It is a vast field of research, encompassing perturbative and non-perturbative dynamics, and ranging from…
The analysis on the high energy proton-proton scattering is presented, focusing on the Regge regime and considering the Pomeron exchange to describe the involved nonperturbative dynamics in the framework of holographic QCD. We combine the…
We represent the multi-leg tree-level amplitudes of quarks and gluons using a minimal set of lightcone variables, which incorporate all on-shell and momentum conservation conditions and naturally captures the separate longitudinal and…
The amplitude for the collision of two hadrons with the lowest order pomeron loop is calculated. Numerical calculations show that the loop contribution to the amplitude begins to dominate the single pomeron exchange at rapidities 8-10. Full…
Observables involving heavy quarks can be computed in perturbative QCD in two different approximation schemes: either the quark mass dependence is fully retained, or it is retained only where needed to regulate the collinear singularity.…
We review theoretical and experimental advances in the application of the perturbative QCD approach to the description of particle distributions in jets in the (semi) soft region with particular emphasis on HERA physics.
Infrared divergences in the perturbative expansion of gauge theory amplitudes and cross sections have been a focus of theoretical investigations for almost a century. New insights still continue to emerge, as higher perturbative orders are…
I review recent results in QCD at high energy, emphasizing the role of higher-order computations, power corrections, and Monte Carlo simulations in the study of a few discrepancies between data and perturbative predictions, and discussing…
A brief review of key recent developments and ongoing projects in perturbative QCD theory, with emphasis on conceptual advances that have the potential for impact on LHC studies. Topics covered include: twistors and new recursive…
We review the extension of the factorization formalism for perturbative QCD to soft initial- and final-state scattering associated with hard processes in nuclei.
It has been proposed that the energy evolution of QCD amplitudes in the high-energy regime falls in the universality class of reaction-diffusion processes. We review the arguments for this correspondence, and we explain how it enables one…
This talk outlines the derivation of a high-energy, transverse momentum cut-off, solution of QCD in which the Regge pole and ``single gluon'' properties of the pomeron are directly related to the confinement and chiral symmetry breaking…
We propose an effectively nonperturbative approach to calculating scattering amplitudes in the perturbative regime. We do this in a discretized momentum space by using the QSE method to calculate all the contributions (to all orders in…
In previous works, a squared mass operator M^2 and a more common centre of frame Hamiltonian H_CM for the quark-antiquark system were obtained by using the only assumption that ln W (W being the Wilson loop correlator) can be written in QCD…
