We explain how Regge theory and perturbative evolution may be made compatible at small x. The result not only gives striking support to the two-pomeron description of small-x behaviour, but gives a rather clean test of perturbative QCD…
Regge theory provides an excellent description of small-$x$ structure-function data from $Q^2=0$ up to the highest available values. The large-$Q^2$ data should also be described by perturbative QCD: the two descriptions must agree in the…
Regge theory provides an excellent fit to small-x structure-function data from Q^2=0 right up to the highest available values, but it also teaches us that conventional approaches to perturbative evolution are incorrect.
The conventional approach to perturbative evolution is illegal because the expansion in powers of $\alpha_s$ of the the DGLAP splitting matrix ${\bf P(z,\alpha_s)}$ breaks down at small $z$. The small-$x$ data for the proton structure…
Regge theory provides a very simple and economical description of data for (i) the proton structure function with x<0.07 and all available Q^2 values, (ii) the charm structure function, and (iii) gamma p --> J/psi p. The data are all in…
Deep-inelastic scattering at small x is a new field of QCD phenomenology which HERA experiments started to explore. The data show the feature expected by the perturbative Regge asymptotics. We describe the parton picture of structure…
Perturbative NLO and NNLO QCD evolutions of parton distributions are studied, in particular in the (very) small-x region, where they are in very good agreement with all recent precision measurements of F_2^p(x,Q^2). These predictions turn…
Two key issues in the application of perturbative QCD and Regge predictions to high energy processes are whether the hard and soft pomerons should be considered as two separate distinct exchanges and whether the Regge intercepts are Q^2…
At present there is no correct theory of evolution of F_2(x,Q^2) at small x. It is a mixture of hard and soft pomeron exchange and perturbative QCD very successfully describes the evolution of the hard-pomeron component. This allows the…
The asymptotic behaviour of cubic field theories is investigated in the Regge limit using the techniques of environmentally friendly renormalization, environmentally friendly in the present context meaning asymmetric in its momentum…
We test the consistency of the data on the nucleon structure functions with analyticity and the Regge asymptotics of the virtual Compton amplitude. By solving a functional extremal problem, we derive an optimal lower bound on the maximum…
Analysing the asymptotic behaviour of the quark-quark elastic scattering amplitude at high energy and fixed transferred momentum and assuming that gluon is reggeized, we obtain the evolution equation for the gluon Regge trajectory in QCD.…
In a previous paper, we have shown that it was possible to use the DGLAP evolution equatio n to constrain the high-$Q^2$ ($Q^2 \ge 10$ GeV$^2$) behaviour of the residues of a high-e nergy Regge model, and we applied the developed method to…
The dispersive representation of the virtual Compton forward scattering amplitude has been recently reexamined in connection with the evaluation of the Cottingham formula for the proton-neutron electromagnetic mass difference. The most…
We explore the complex dynamical behavior of simple predator-prey models of biological coevolution that account for interspecific and intraspecific competition for resources, as well as adaptive foraging behavior. In long kinetic Monte…
We study the interface between Regge behavior and DGLAP evolution in a non-perturbative model for the nucleon structure function based on a multipole pomeron exchange. This model provides the input for a subsequent DGLAP evolution that we…
The validity of using QCD perturbation theory to generate dynamically the parton distribution functions of hadrons, starting from a valencelike input at low $Q^2$, is discussed. In particular, we consider the prescription of Barone {\em et…
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…
Scattering amplitudes in the high-energy limit can be described in terms of their singularity structure in the complex angular momentum plane, consisting of Regge poles and cuts. In QCD, gluon Reggeization has long been understood as a…
The $Q^2$ evolution of polarised parton distributions at small $x$ is studied. Various analytic approximations are critically discussed. We compare the full evolution with that obtained from the leading-pole approximation to the splitting…
