We present a summary of the physics of gluon saturation and non-linear QCD evolution at small values of parton momentum fraction $x$ in the proton and nucleus in the context of recent experimental results at HERA and RHIC. The rich physics…
In this paper we study the description of saturation in Balitsky, Jalilian-Marian, Iancu, McLerran, Weigert, Leonidov and Kovner (B-JIMWLK) picture when restricted to observables made up only from dipole operators. We derive a functional…
The idea of saturation of parton densities in small x physics is briefly introduced. Some aspects of saturation are described, mainly focusing on the status of our knowledge on the non-linear equations describing the high parton density…
The small-$x$ deep inelastic scattering in the saturation region is governed by the non-linear evolution of Wilson-lines operators. In the leading logarithmic approximation it is given by the BK equation for the evolution of color dipoles.…

Motivated by the regime of QCD explored nowadays at LHC, where both the total energy of collision and momenta transfers are high, we investigate evolution equations of high energy factorization. In order to study such effects like parton…
The BFKL and the unified angular-ordered equations are solved to determine the gluon distribution at small $x$. The impact of kinematic constraints is investigated. Predictions are made for observables sensitive to the gluon at small $x$.…
We note the differences between the Kovchegov equation and the Balitsky-JIMWLK equations as methods of evaluating high energy hard scattering near the unitarity limit. We attempt to simulate some of the correlations absent in the Kovchegov…
Using the QCD dipole picture of BFKL dynamics, the quasi elastic component of the diffractive gamma*-dipole cross-section, dominating at small M^2/Q^2, is calculated.
This is a summary of the contributions on the next-to-leading order corrections to the BFKL equation which were presented to the `Small-x and Diffraction' working group at the 1998 Durham Workshop on HERA Physics.
An overview of recent theoretical progress on Non-Relativistic QCD and related effective theories is provided.
We compare predictions based on small x (QCD) dynamics with recent data for deep inelastic events containing forward jets or forward pi0 mesons. We quantify the effect of imposing the (higher order) consistency condition on the BFKL…
We construct an anomalous dimension for small x evolution which goes beyond standard fixed order perturbative evolution by including resummed small x logarithms deduced from the leading order BFKL equation with running coupling.…
We review the current understanding of the behaviour of inclusive cross sections at small x and large Q^2 in terms of Altarelli-Parisi evolution, the BFKL equation, and Regge theory, asking in particular to what extent they are mutually…
A brief overview is presented of recent developments concerning resummed small-x evolution, based upon the renormalization group equation. The non-singlet and singlet structure functions are discussed for both polarized and unpolarized…

We perform analysis of the small x non-linear evolution equation formulated in momentum space supplemented by higher order terms. The equation is defined in wide range of transverse momentum and longitudinal momentum fraction extending…
The Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) evolution equation is known to be ``unstable'' with respect to fluctuations in gluon virtuality, transverse momentum and energy requiring to go beyond the leading order BFKL. Still, these…
