We find one-loop correction to the integral kernel of the BFKL equation for the total cross section of the high energy scattering in QCD and calculate the next-to-leading contribution to anomalous dimensions of twist-2 operators near $j=1$.
The equation for the hard pomeron with a running coupling introduced on the basis of the bootstrap requirement is solved numerically. Two supercritical pomerons are found with the intercept minus 1 of the leading one of the order 0.35-0.5…
It is shown that the kernel of the BFKL equation for the octet color state of two Reggeized gluons satisfies the strong bootstrap condition in the next-to-leading order. This condition is much more restrictive than the one obtained from the…
We investigate the relation between a postulated skeleton expansion and the conformal limit of QCD. We begin by developing some consequences of an Abelian-like skeleton expansion, which allows one to disentangle running-coupling effects…
The production in high-energy hadron collisions of a pair of jets with large rapidity separation is studied in an improved BFKL formalism. By recasting the analytic solution of the BFKL equation as an explicit order-by-order sum over…
We show that a scale invariant approximation to the next-to-leading order BFKL kernel, constructed via transverse momentum diagrams, has a simple conformally invariant representation in impact parameter space i.e. K(r1,r2,r1',r2') = g^4 N^2…
Azimuthal angle decorrelation in inclusive dijet cross sections is studied analytically to take into account the next-to-leading corrections to the BFKL kernel while keeping the jet vertices at leading order. The spectral representation on…
We present a new method for solving the BFKL evolution applicable at both leading and next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy, and tailored to the study of QCD multi-jet events at colliders. We utilise this to discuss corrections to the…
Starting from the multi-Regge effective action for high-energy scattering in QCD a $t$-channel approach can be developed which is similar to the approach by White based on general Regge arguments. The BFKL kernel of reggeized gluon…
To find the region of applicability of the leading log(1/x) approximation for parton distributions in the small x region and to fix the argument of the QCD running coupling it is necessary to know radiative corrections to the kernel of the…
Imposing infrared boundary conditions on the BFKL equation with running coupling transforms the complex momentum w-plane cut present in the gluon Green function into an infinite series of positive Regge poles. In addition, a cut on the…
Scale-invariant running couplings are constructed for several quarks being decoupled together, without reference to intermediate thresholds. Large-momentum scales can also be included. The result is a multi-scale generalization of the…
The high energy limit of scattering processes in QCD is, at least on the purely theoretical level, described by the BFKL equation. However, many phenomenological studies of BFKL fail miserably when confronted with data. In this talk we will…
The contributions to the deep inelastic scattering structure function which arise from emission of zero, one, two or three resolvable gluons and any number of unresolvable ones are computed to order ${\bar \alpha}_{S}^{3}$. Coherence…
We perform a global fit to the structure function F_2 measured in lepton-proton experiments at small values of Bjorken-x, x\le 0.01, for all experimentally available values of Q^2, 0.045 GeV^2\le Q^2 \le 800 GeV^2. We show that the recent…
Recent concerns about the very large next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) corrections to the BFKL equation are addressed by the introduction of a physical rapidity-separation parameter $\Delta$. At the leading logarithm (LL) this parameter…
The HERA data on the proton structure function, $F_2(x,Q^2)$, at very small $x$ and $Q^2$ show the dramatic departure of the logarithmic slope, $\partial F_2/\partial\log Q^2$, from theoretical predictions based on the DGLAP evolution. We…
The running of the QCD coupling is incorporated into the infrared evolution equations for the flavour structure function g_1. The explicit expressions for g_1 including the total resummation of the double-logarithmic contributions and…
The kernel of the BFKL equation for non-zero momentum transfer is found at next-to-leading order. It is presented in various forms depending on the regularization of the infrared singularities in "virtual" and "real" parts of the kernel.…
The running coupling is introduced into the equation for the odderon via the bootstrap relation. It is shown that the previously found odderon state with a maximal intercept, which is constructed from antisymmetric pomeron wave function,…
