Scattering amplitudes in QCD exhibit a definite RG flow with energy towards the unitarity limit. In this paper we put forward an evolution equation which allows one to modify continuously the pre-asymptotic RG flow towards "saturation" of…
We present a phenomenological study of the small-x behaviour of gluon distribution function $G(x,Q^2)$ at next-to-leading order (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order(NNLO) in light of the nonlinear Gribov-Ryskin-Levin-Mueller-Qiu…
We examine the $Q^2$ evolution of gluon polarization in polarized nucleons. As is well known, the evolution of $\alpha_s \Delta G(Q^2)$ is negligible for typical momentum transfer variations found in experimental deep inelastic scattering.…

We continue the study of the effective action for low $x$ physics based on a Wilson renormalization group approach. We express the full nonlinear renormalization group equation in terms of the average value and the average fluctuation of…
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…
