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…
We discuss the high energy asymptotics in the next-to-leading (NLO) BFKL equation. We find a general solution for Green functions and consider two properties of the NLO BFKL kernel: running QCD coupling and large NLO corrections to the…
We study quantitatively the importance of the recently derived NLO corrections to the DIS structure functions at small x in the dipole formalism. We show that these corrections can be significant and depend on the factorization scheme used…
We calculate and resum a perturbative expansion of nuclear enhanced power corrections to the structure functions measured in deeply inelastic scattering of leptons on a nuclear target. Our results for the Bjorken $x$-, $Q^2$- and…
The small-x behavior of structure functions in the saturation region is determined by the non-linear generalization of the BFKL equation. I suggest the effective field theory for the small-x evolution which solves formally this equation.…
Hard scattering processes involving hadrons at small $x$ are described by a $k_T$-factorization formula driven by a BFKL gluon. We explore the equivalence of this description to a collinear-factorization approach in which the anomalous…
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…
Of late, the field of BFKL physics has been the subject of significant developments. The calculation of the NLL terms was recently completed, and they turned out to be very large. Techniques have been proposed to resum these corrections.…
The consistency of the BFKL equation with the renormalization group is investigated at next-to-leading log-x level.By use of Kt-factorization, it is found that,besides next-to-leading small-x resummation formulae, a leading, x-dependent…
We study the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) evolution of flavour singlet parton densities and structure functions in massless perturbative QCD. Present information on the corresponding three-loop splitting functions is used to derive…
We critically examine the QCD predictions for the $Q^2$ dependence of the electron-proton deep-inelastic structure function $F_2(x,Q^2)$ in the small $x$ region, which is being probed at HERA. The standard results based on next-to-leading…
In this paper we proceed with the study of the Pomeron spectrum, by solving numerically the BFKL equation with massive gluons and running coupling. The spectrum of Regge singularities is discrete and the leading Pomeron has a considerable…
A brief overview is presented of recent developments concerning resummed small-x evolution, based upon the renormalization group equation. The non-singlet and singlet structure functions are discussed for both polarized and unpolarized…
It has been found that recent results on forward jet production from deep inelastic scattering can neither be reproduced by models which are based on leading order $\alpha_s$ QCD matrix elements and parton showers nor by next-to-leading…
The next-to-leading order (NLO) Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation describing the high-energy evolution of the scattering between a dilute projectile and a dense target suffers from instabilities unless it is supplemented by a proper…
The next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to the BFKL equation in the BLM optimal scale setting are briefly discussed. A striking feature of the BLM approach is rather weak Q^2-dependence of the Pomeron intercept, which might indicate an…
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 DGLAP and BFKL evolution equations in the N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory in the leading and next-to-leading approximations. Eigenvalues of the BFKL kernel in this model turn out to be analytic functions of the conformal spin. It…
The DGLAP, BFKL, modified DGLAP and modified BFKL equations are constructed in a unified partonic framework. The antishadowing effect in the recombination process is emphasized, which leads to two different small $x$ behaviors of gluon…
We study power corrections to the spin-averaged structure functions F_2 and F_L in the semi-inclusive region. The dramatic breakdown of the operator product expansion at large Bjorken x due to the formation of a narrow jet with invariant…
