On the basis of the results of a new renormalisation group improved small-x resummation scheme, we argue that the range of validity of perturbative calculations is considerably extended in rapidity with respect to leading log expectations.…
We investigate the basic features of the gluon density predicted by a renormalisation group improved small-x equation which incorporates both the gluon splitting function at leading collinear level and the exact BFKL kernel at…
The following topics in perturbative QCD are reviewed: recent theoretical progress in higher-order calculations; soft-gluon resummation for hard-scattering processes at large $E_T$ and high $x$; low-$x$ behaviour of structure functions and…
In these proceedings, I shall review the basic concepts of perturbative QCD in its high-energy limit. I shall concentrate on the approach to the unitarity limit, usually referred to as saturation, as well as on the gluon-number fluctuations…
It is well understood that the leading logarithmic approximation for the amplitudes of high energy processes is insufficient and that the next-to-leading logarithmic effects are very large and lead to instability of the solution. The…
The normalization of the gluon condensate and of renormalon-related power corrections in QCD is computed under the assumption that their ``perturbative'' part dominates over any eventual extra contribution from the non-trivial vacuum. The…
We show that QCD Green functions in Landau Gauge exhibit sizable $O(1/\mu^2)$ corrections to the expected perturbative behavior at energies as high as 10 GeV. We argue that these are due to a $<A^2>$-condensate which does not vanish in…
We study the low energy behavior of QCD Green functions in the limit that the baryon chemical potential is much larger than the QCD scale parameter $\Lambda_QCD$. We show that there is a systematic low energy expansion in powers of…
Fits to the final combined HERA deep-inelastic scattering cross-section data within the conventional DGLAP framework of QCD have shown some tension at low $x$ and low $Q^2$. A resolution of this tension incorporating $\ln(1/x)$-resummation…
I present a simplified model for the gluon Green's function governing high-energy QCD dynamics, in arbitrary space-time dimensions. The BFKL integral equation (either with or without running coupling) reduces to a second order differential…
The problem of improving the reliability of perturbative QCD predictions at moderate energies is considered. These predictions suffer from substantial renormalization scheme dependence, which is illustrated using as an example the QCD…
We study the splitting functions for the evolution of fragmentation distributions and the coefficient functions for single-hadron production in semi-inclusive electron-positron annihilation in massless perturbative QCD for small values of…
The problem of precise evaluation of the perturbative QCD predictions at moderate energies is considered. Substantial renormalization scheme dependence of the perturbative predictions obtained with the conventional renormalization group…
In this talk I describe recent progress in investigating the high energy limit of perturbative QCD. I review some of the steps that have been done in the direction of constructing an effective field theory for this limit. I describe some of…
We formulate a dressed perturbative expansion of QCD, where the standard diagrams are evaluated in the presence of a constant external gluon field whose magnitude is gaussian distributed. The approach is Poincar{\'e} and gauge invariant,…
In this contribution a recently proposed iterative procedure is used to study the BFKL gluon Green's function at next-to-leading order. This is done in QCD and in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. The study includes an analysis of the…
Atomic number ($A$) and energy ($\roots$) scaling exponents of multiplicity and transverse energy in heavy ion collisions are analytically derived in the perturbative QCD + saturation model. The exponents depend on the small-$x$ behaviour…
It is widely believed that at small x, the BFKL resummed gluon splitting function should grow as a power of 1/x. But in several recent calculations it has been found to decrease for moderately small-x before eventually rising. We show that…
The longitudinal structure function in deep inelastic scattering is one of the observables from which the gluon distribution can be unfolded. Consequently, this observable can be used to constrain the QCD dynamics at small $x$. In this work…
In these proceedings, I shall review the basic concepts of perturbative QCD in its high-energy limit, emphasising the approach to the unitarity limit, usually referred to as {\em saturation}. I shall explain the basic framework showing the…
