We give a brief overview of the perturbative QCD description of the proton deep-inelastic structure function F2(x, Q2) at small x. We discuss GLAP and BFKL approaches, and then we review progress towards a more unified treatment.
We investigate the evolution of parton densities at small values of the momentum fraction, x, by including resummed anomalous dimensions in the renormalization group equations. The resummation takes into account the leading-logarithmic…
The proton spin puzzle is a longstanding problem in high-energy nuclear physics: how the proton spin distributes among the spin and orbital angular momenta of the quarks and gluons inside. Two of the unresolved pieces of the puzzle are the…
I discuss radiative corrections to the BFKL equation for high energy cross sections in perturbative QCD. Due to the gluon Reggeization in the next-to-leading $\ln s$ approximation, the form of the BFKL equation remains unchanged and the…
We review small $x$ contributions to perturbative evolution equations for parton distributions, and their resummation. We emphasize in particular the resummation technique recently developed in order to deal with the apparent instability of…
We propose a matrix evolution equation in (x,kt)-space for flavour singlet, unintegrated quark and gluon densities, which generalizes DGLAP and BFKL equations in the relevant limits. The matrix evolution kernel is constructed so as to…
We present exploratory studies of the proton structure via two distinct kinds of gluon densities: the transverse-momentum dependent functions, whose evolution is determined by the CSS equation, and the unintegrated gluon distribution, whose…
We summarize recent progress in the resummation of perturbative evolution at small x. We show that the problem of incorporating BFKL small x logs in GLAP evolution is now completely solved, and that the main effect of small x resummation is…
We present numerical studies of the leading non-linear corrections to the DGLAP evolution equations of parton distribution functions (PDFs) resulting from gluon recombination, which reduce the pace of evolution at small momentum fractions…
We present a set of formulas to extract two second-order independent differential equations for the gluon and singlet distribution functions. Our results extend from the LO up to NNLO DGLAP evolution equations with respect to the…
A new approach to global QCD analysis is developed. The main ingredients are two QCD-based evolution equations. The first one is the Balitsky-Kovchegov nonlinear equation, which sums higher twists while preserving unitarity. The second…
We indicate that the random aperiodic oscillation of the gluon distributions in a modified BFKL equation has the positive Lyapunov exponents. This first example of chaos in QCD evolution equations, raises the sudden disappearance of the…
We computed the longitudinal proton structure function $F_{L}$, using the nonlinear Dokshitzer-Gribov-Lipatov-Altarelli-parisi (NLDGLAP) evolution equation approach at small $x$. For the gluon distribution, the nonlinear effects are related…
We show that it is possible to use hard-Pomeron behavior to the gluon distribution and singlet structure function at low $x$. We derive a second-order independent differential equation for the gluon distribution and the singlet structure…
Aspects of the QCD parton densities are briefly reviewed, drawing some parallels to the density matrix formulation of quantum mechanics, exemplified by Wigner functions. We elaborate on the solution of their evolution equations using…
The QCD dipole picture allows to build an unified theoretical description -based on BFKL dynamics- of the total and diffractive nucleon structure functions measured at HERA. We use a four parameter fit to describe the 1994 H1 proton…
We numerically study for the first time the nonlinear GLR-MQ evolution equations for nuclear parton distribution function (nPDFs) to next-to-leading order accuracy and quantify the impact of gluon recombination at small $x$. Using the…
