High-energy evolution equations, such as the BFKL, BK or JIMWLK equations, aim at resumming the high-energy (next-to-)leading logarithms appearing in QCD perturbative series. However, the standard derivations of those equations are…

We propose a modified Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov equation from the viewpoint of the resummation technique, which contains an intrinsic dependence on momentum transfer Q, and satisfies the unitarity bound. The idea is to relax the strong…
The Balitsky--Kovchegov (BK) evolution equation in its resummed integral form as obtained in JHEP 1202 (2012) 117 and arXiv:1206.1223 is considered. We solve it numerically and compare to the unresummed BK equation formulated as an integral…
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 propose a modified version of the Balitsky-Kovchegov (B-K) evolution equation, which includes the main NLO corrections. We use the result that the main NLO corrections to the BFKL kernel are the LO DGLAP corrections. We present a…

The perturbative QCD predicts that the growth of the gluon density at small-$x$ (high energies) should saturate, forming a Color Glass Condensate (CGC), which is described in mean field approximation by the Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation.…
