The BFKL approach for the investigation of semihard processes is plagued by large next-to-leading corrections, both in the kernel of the universal BFKL Green's function and in the process-dependent impact factors, as well as by large…
First results of a non--singlet QCD analysis of the structure function $F_2(x,Q^2)$ in 3--loop order based on the non--singlet world data are presented. Correlated errors are determined and their propagation through the evolution equations…
The polarized nucleon structure function in the nonsinglet case is investigated here by a new insight rather than conventional perturbative QCD (pQCD). For this purpose we note that the solution of the evolution equations in moment space…
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…
Previously developed Pade-related method of resummation for QCD observables, which achieves exact renormalization-scale-invariance, is extended so that the scheme-invariance is obtained as well. The dependence on the leading scheme…
We study the anomalous dimensions and coefficient functions generated by the BFKL equation in 4+2 epsilon dimensions, by investigating both running coupling effects, and the inclusion of the full next-to-leading kernel. After generalising…
We discuss the combination of NNLO standard QCD evolution and scheme-invariant analysis for unpolarized DIS structure functions data as a method to reduce the theoretical errors on the determination of $\alpha_s(M_Z^2)$ to $\sim 1$% in…
Considering the BFKL and DGLAP QCD evolution equations for structure functions, we discuss the possibility of unifying them in the whole $x$ and $Q^2$ range. We emphasize that the main problem is related to the constraint of angular…
I present a brief review of the generalized Brodsky-Lepage-McKenzie (BLM) approaches to fix the scale-dependence of the renormalization group (RG) invariant quantities in QCD. At first, these approaches are based on the expansions of the…
We investigate the consistency requirements of the next-to leading BFKL equation with the renormalization group, with particular emphasis on running coupling effects and NL anomalous dimensions. We show that, despite some model dependence…
We discuss the matching conditions and renormalization group evolution of non-relativistic QCD. A variant of the conventional MS-bar scheme is proposed in which a subtraction velocity nu is used rather than a subtraction scale mu. We derive…
A systematic method is proposed for analyzing the renormalization scheme uncertainties in the next-next-to-leading order QCD predicitions, based on a condition which eliminates schemes that give rise to large cancellations in the expression…
We present results of a lattice QCD application of a coordinate space renormalization scheme for the extraction of renormalization constants for flavour non-singlet bilinear quark operators. The method consists in the analysis of the…
We introduce a generalization of the conventional renormalization schemes used in dimensional regularization, which illuminates the renormalization scheme and scale ambiguities of pQCD predictions, exposes the general pattern of…
A particular choice of renormalization, within the simplifications provided by the non-perturbative property of Effective Locality, leads to a completely finite, renormalized theory of QCD, in which all correlation functions can, in…
We use QCD sum rules to determine the difference between moments of the non-singlet structure functions. This combination decouples from the singular behaviour of the structure functions near x=1 as calculated in the quark-gluon basis and…
We study the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) evolution of flavour non-singlet quark densities and structure functions in massless perturbative QCD. Present information on the corresponding three-loop splitting functions is used to…
I explicitly calculate the anomalous dimensions and splitting functions governing the Q^2 evolution of the parton densities and structure functions which result from the running coupling BFKL equation at LO, i.e. I perform a resummation in…
Building on the recent derivation of a bare factorization theorem for the $b$-quark induced contribution to the $h\to\gamma\gamma$ decay amplitude based on soft-collinear effective theory, we derive the first renormalized factorization…
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…
