The solution to the non-forward BFKL equation in the Leading Logarithmic approximation is expressed in terms of a sum of iterations of its kernel directly in transverse momentum and rapidity space. Several studies of the non-forward…
The amplitude for 4 interacting reggeized gluons is studied in the high-colour limit. The leading order amplitude is explicitly shown to reduce to a pair of reggeons, i.e to a single BFKL pomeron. The next-to-leading order diffractive…

We study effects of the running of the coupling in QCD at small Bjorken-x and in particular the ones related to gluon saturation. After introducing the steps taken to the derivation of the next to leading order nonlinear evolution equation,…
In this contribution a recently proposed iterative procedure is used to study the BFKL gluon Green's function at next-to-leading order. This is done in QCD and in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The study includes an analysis of the…
We discuss the odderon in the QCD and analyze the effects of running coupling introduced in a particular way to preserve the reggeization of the gluon within the leading logarithmic description. This idea is also applied to a family of BKP…
In the present note we propose a shift of the anomalous dimension function of the eigenfunctions of the BFKL equation with the NLO running coupling corrections. The calculated eigenvalue of the modified equation turns out to be conformal…
We demonstrate that the diffraction slope of the generalized BFKL pomeron amplitude has the conventional Regge growth $B(s) = B(0) + 2\alpha_{\Pom}'\log(s)$. This proves that the generalized BFKL pomeron is described by the moving $j$-plane…
I examine the form of the solution of the BFKL equation with running coupling relevant for deep inelastic scattering. The evolution of structure functions is precisely determined and well described by an effective coupling of the form…

We argue that deep-inelastic diffractive scaling provides fundamental insight into the QCD Pomeron. The logarithmic scaling violations seen experimentally are in conflict with the scale-invariance of the BFKL Pomeron and with…
We investigate consequences of the M\"obius invariance of the BFKL Hamiltonian and of the triple Pomeron vertex. In particular, we show that the triple Pomeron vertex in QCD, when restricted to the large $N_c$ limit and to the space of…

We investigate the sensitivity of the discrete BFKL spectrum, which appears in the gluon Green function when the running coupling is considered, to a lower cut-off in the relative rapidities of the emitted particles. We find that the…
The high-energy behaviour of two-scale hard processes is investigated in the framework of small-x models with running coupling, having the Airy diffusion model as prototype. We show that, in some intermediate high-energy regime, the…
We discuss the small-x behaviour of the next-to-leading BFKL equation, depending on various smoothing out procedures of the running coupling constant at low momenta. While scaling violations (with resummed and calculable anomalous…
We use the dipole expansion to provide a systematic way of including the running coupling into the BFKL equation. In terms of a Borel representation, we obtain an expression for the kernel of the BFKL equation.
An estimate is derived for the absolute magnitude of BFKL pomeron exchange at $t=0$. The analysis takes account of energy conservation and of the need realistically to model nonperturbative contributions to the BFKL integral from infrared…
I propose a new method to determine the running coupling in a Schrodinger-functional setup. The method utilizes the scattering amplitude of massless fermions propagating between the time boundaries. Preliminary tests show the statistical…
