The asymptotic behavior of the scattering amplitude for two scalar particles at high energies with fixed momentum transfers is studied. The study is done within the effective theory of quantum gravity based on quasi-potential equation. By…
The available experimental information is consistent with the Weinberg predictions for the threshold parameters of pi-pi-scattering. The data, however, only test those relations that are insensitive to the quark masses m_u and m_d. Recent…
In this talk we describe the application of the AdS/CFT correspondence for a confining background to the study of high energy scattering amplitudes in gauge theory. We relate the energy behaviour of scattering amplitudes to properties of…
We shall discuss how some relevant analyticity and crossing-symmetry properties of the "eikonal scattering amplitudes" of two Wilson loops in QCD, when going from Euclidean to Minkowskian theory, can be related to the still unsolved problem…
We recall the physical features of the parton distributions in the quantum statistical approach of the nucleon, which allows to describe simultaneously, unpolarized and polarized Deep Inelastic Scattering data. Some predictions from a…
Recent results in QCD on multiplicity distributions are briefly reviewed. QCD is able to predict very tiny features of multiplicity distributions which demonstrate that the negative binomial distribution (and, more generally, any infinitely…
I review recent theoretical advances in quantum chromodynamics. Particular emphasis is put on developments related to the precise prediction and interpretation of experimental data from present and future high energy colliders.
The quantum statistical parton distributions approach proposed more than one decade ago is revisited by considering a larger set of recent and accurate Deep Inelastic Scattering experimental results. It enables us to improve the description…
In this paper a solution is given to the nonlinear equation which describes the evolution of the parton cascade in the case of the high parton density. The related physics is discussed as well as some applications to heavy ion-ion…
Following Polchinski and Strassler [1] and our previous work [2], we study high-energy pion scattering in the holographic QCD hard-wall model. In particular, we focus on comparing our predictions for the angular dependence of $\pi^{+}…
In this paper we consider some analytic properties of the high--energy quark--quark scattering amplitude, which, as is well known, can be described by the expectation value of two lightlike Wilson lines, running along the classical…

We discuss the spectrum of open string and point particle excitations in QCD with various source representations. Some general relations are introduced and lattice results presented. In particular we discuss the short-distance behaviour,…
The phenomenological energy dissipation in QCD jets evolution with colour coherence is considered and the corresponding modified parton multiplicity and distribution function are computed.
In these proceedings, I shall review the basic concepts of perturbative QCD in its high-energy limit, emphasising the approach to the unitarity limit, usually referred to as {\em saturation}. I shall explain the basic framework showing the…
The asymptotic behavior of the elastic scattering amplitude by the exchange of graviton between two scalar particles at high energies and fixed momentum transfers is reconsidered in the Logunov-Tavkhelidze equation in the linearized…
We evaluate a number of new instanton-induced phenomena in QCD, starting with static dipole-dipole potentials, and proceeding to quark-quark and dipole-dipole scattering at high energy. We use a non-perturbative formulation of the…
Lattice QCD calculations of resonant meson-meson scattering amplitudes have improved significantly due to algorithmic and computational advances. However, progress in meson-nucleon scattering has been slower due to difficulties in computing…
We study the effective action describing high-energy scattering processes in the multi-Regge limit of QCD, which should provide the starting point for a new attempt to overcome the limitations of the leading logarithmic and the eikonal…
I describe our understanding of the strong interactions at the end of the 1960's and the impact of the experiments on deep inelastic scattering. I recall the steps that lead from the attempts to understand these experiments to the discovery…
