We examine both analytically and numerically the validity of factorization for the double dipole scattering amplitude T^{(2)} which appears on the right hand side of the BK--JIMWLK equation. We demonstrate that, if one uses a dilute object…
We revisit the numerical construction of the initial condition for the dipole amplitude from the McLerran-Venugopalan model in the context of the JIMWLK evolution equation. We observe large finite volume effects induced by the Poisson…

The small x evolution of the QCD pomeron and the QCD odderon is investigated in the mean field limit of the Color Glass Condensate. The resulting system of coupled nonlinear evolution equations is transformed to the momentum space and…

We study the small-$x$ asymptotics of unpolarized generalized parton distributions (GPDs) and generalized transverse momentum distributions (GTMDs). Unlike the previous works in the literature, we consider the case of non-zero (but small)…
We show that the Balitsky-JIMWLK equations proposed to describe non-linear evolution in QCD at high energy fail to include the effects of fluctuations in the gluon number, and thus to correctly describe both the low density regime and the…
An extensive generalization of the ordinary and quasi-eikonal methods is presented for the $pp$ and $\bar pp$ elastic scattering amplitudes, which takes into account in a phenomenological way all intermediate multiparticle states involving…
In recent years, the discovery of the odderon, a colorless $C$-odd gluonic compound, has been confirmed in the TOTEM and D0 collaborations. However, the spin quantum number of the odderon remains unidentified. In this work, we aim to…
We calculate some ${\cal O}(\alpha_s^2)$ corrections to the JIMWLK kernel in the framework of the light-cone wave function approach to the high energy limit of QCD. The contributions that we consider originate from higher order corrections…
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 study the high-energy behavior of the elastic scattering amplitude using two distinct unitarization schemes: the eikonal and the $U$-matrix. Our analysis begins with a formalism involving solely Pomerons, incorporating pion-loop…

We introduce a new model of near-forward elastic proton-(anti)proton scattering at high energy based on the modern formulation of Pomeron and Odderon in terms of Wilson lines and generalized TMDs (GTMDs). We compute the helicity-dependent…
This thesis comprises two investigations, both connected with the attempt to understand Regge theory in the framework of QCD. The first is about how the odderon, a Reggeon carrying no charge which is odd under charge conjugation, couples to…
Many-body QCD in leading high energy Regge asymptotics is described by the Balitsky-JIMWLK hierarchy of renormalization group equations for the x evolution of multi-point Wilson line correlators. These correlators are universal and…
We discuss the QCD evolution equations governing the high energy behavior of scattering amplitudes at the leading logarithmic level. This hierarchy of equations accommodates normal BFKL dynamics, Pomeron mergings and Pomeron splittings.…
