We test the performance of a RG-improved kernel in the determination of the amplitude of a physical process, the electroproduction of two light vector mesons,in the BFKL approach at the next-to-leading approximation (NLA). We find that a…
As noticed by Fadin, Kuraev and Lipatov in 1975 incorporation of asymptotic freedom into the BFKL equation splits the QCD pomeron into a series of isolated poles in complex angular momentum plane. Following our earlier work on the proton…
The representation of the total cross section at high energy $\sqrt s$ in the next-to-leading $\ln s$ approximation is given with definition of the impact factors and explicit expression for the BFKL kernel. The estimate of the Pomeron…
Calculations using the (exact) fermionic functional renormalization group are usually truncated at the second order of the corresponding hierarchy of coupled ordinary differential equations. We present a method for the systematic…
This is an extended and pedagogically oriented version of our recent work, in which we proposed an improvement of the splitting functions at small x which overcomes the apparent problems encountered by the BFKL approach.
We present the full next-to-leading order (NLO) prediction for the jet-gap-jet cross section at the LHC within the BFKL approach. We implement, for the first time, the NLO impact factors in the calculation of the cross section. We provide…
We start from the two existing QCD evolution equations for structure functions, the BFKL and DGLAP equations, and discuss the theoretical hints for a unifying picture of the evolution in $x$ and $Q^2.$ The main difficulty is due to the…
An approach is elaborated for calculation of "all loop" contributions to the non-singlet evolution kernels from the diagrams with renormalon chain insertions. Closed expressions are obtained for sums of contributions to kernels $P(z)$ for…
We study the region of small transverse momenta in qqbar- and gg-initiated processes with no colored particle detected in the final state. We present the universal expression of the O(alpha_s^2) logarithmically enhanced contributions up to…
We extract the small x asymptotic behaviour of the Altarelli-Parisi splitting functions from their expansion in leading logarithms of 1/x. We show in particular that the nominally next-to-leading correction extracted from the Fadin-Lipatov…
We investigate the impact of so called kinematic constraint on gluon evolution at small $x$. Implanting the constraint on the real emission term of gluon ladder diagram, we obtain an integro-differential form of BFKL equation. Later we…
The dipole form of the gluon part of the colour singlet BFKL kernel in the next-to-leading order (NLO) is obtained in the coordinate representation by direct transfer from the momentum representation, where the kernel was calculated before.…
Starting from a rewiev of DGLAP and BFKL evolution equations for small-x processes, a sistematic study is performed in order to understand the limits of both the formulations and to improve them in a unique framework, which aims to cover…
We propose an improvement of the splitting functions at small x which overcomes the apparent problems encountered by the BFKL approach. We obtain a stable expansion for the x-evolution function chi(M) near M=0 by including in it a sequence…
In this letter we show that the behaviour of $F_{2}$, at very small $x_B$, agrees with the behaviour expected from the BFKL evolution equation, when screening corrections are included. We obtain a description which is consistent with the…
We study the problem of decomposition (non-commutative factorization) of linear ordinary differential operators near an irregular singular point. The solution (given in terms of the Newton diagram and the respective characteristic numbers)…
We present consistently ordered calculations of the structure functions F_2(x,Q^2) and F_L(x,Q^2), in different expansion schemes. After discussing the standard expansion in powers of alpha_s(Q^2) we consider a leading-order expansion in…
We generalise the factorization of abelian gauge theory amplitudes to next-to-leading power (NLP) in a soft scale expansion, following a recent generalisation for Yukawa theory. From an all-order power counting analysis of leading and…
We consider the (process-independent) Green function for the BFKL equation in the next-to-leading order approximation, with running coupling, and explain how, within the semi-classical approximation, it is related to Green function of the…
We develop a framework for the reconstruction of the non-forward kernels which govern the evolution of twist-two distribution amplitudes and off-forward parton distributions beyond leading order. It is based on the knowledge of the special…
