The leading logarithmic approximation method fails to yield the correct asymptotic behavior in some realistic situations: inclusion of the beta-terms to which the LLA method is insensitive may change a power growth to merely logarithmic.…
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…
I examine the solution of the BFKL equation with NLO corrections relevant for deep inelastic scattering. Particular emphasis is placed on the part played by the running of the coupling. It is shown that the solution factorizes into a part…
The small-x behavior of the singlet contributions to the polarized structure function g_2(x,Q^2) is calculated in the double-logarithmic approximation of perturbative QCD. The dominant contribution is due to the gluons which, in contrast to…
A unified equation for the non-singlet spin dependent structure function $g_1^{ns}(x,Q^2)$ which incorporates the complete leading order Altarelli-Parisi evolution at finite $x$ and double logarithmic $ ln^2(1/x)$ effects at $x \to 0$ is…
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…
Over the past few years considerable progress has been made on the resummation of double-logarithmically enhanced threshold (large-x) and high-energy (small-x) higher-order contributions to the splitting functions for parton and…
A new representation of the next to leading QCD corrections to the nucleon structure functions is given in terms of parton distributions. All $~\alpha_{s}~$ corrections to the leading logarithmic approximation (LLA) are included. In…
Infrared evolution equations for small-$x$ behaviour of the non-singlet structure functions $f_1^{NS}$ and $g_1^{NS}$ are obtained and solved in the next-to-leading approximation, to all orders in $\alpha_s$, and including running…
The status of small x resummation in the timelike kinematics is discussed. We present a general procedure to extract the large logarithms of x in the MS factorization scheme and to resum them in a closed form. New results for the…
The method of truncated Mellin moments in a solving QCD evolution equations of the nonsinglet structure functions $F_2^{NS}(x,Q^2)$ and $g_1^{NS}(x,Q^2)$ is presented. All calculations are performed within double logarithmic $ln^2x$…
We discuss the role of sub-leading corrections to deep inelastic processes in the small-x regime, and report recent results on the calculation of coefficient functions and quark anomalous dimensions. *To appear in the proceedings of the…
A semi-numerical solution to Dokshitzer- Gribov-Lipatov-Altarelli-Parisi (DGLAP) evolution equations at leading order (LO), next-to-leading order (NLO) and next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in the small-x limit is presented. Here we have…
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.
The inclusive B -> Xs l+ l- decay rate in the large q^2 region (q^2 > m_{\psi'}^2) receives significant nonperturbative corrections. The resulting uncertainties can be drastically reduced by normalizing the rate to the B -> Xu l nu rate…
It has been observed recently that a consistent LO BFKL gluon evolution leads to a steep growth of F_2(x,Q^2) for x -> 0 almost independently of Q^2. We show that current data from the DESY HERA collider are precise enough to finally rule…
We include resummation of large transverse logarithms into the next-to-leading order Balitsky-Kovchegov equation. The resummed NLO evolution equation is shown to be stable, the evolution speed being significantly reduced by higher order…
We investigate factorisation at small x using a variety of analytical and numerical techniques. Previous results on factorisation in collinear models are generalised to the case of the full BFKL equation, and illustrated in the example of a…
We shown the general approach for Q2 evolution of parton densities and fragmentation functions at low x based on the diagonalization. The diagonalization leads to the two components in the Q2 evolution, each of which contains a…
The behaviour of the quark coefficient function for the longitudinal structure function F_L in deep-inelastic scattering is investigated for large values of the Bjorken variable x. We combine a highly plausible conjecture on the large-x…
