QCD in the Regge limit LL BFKL Pomeron: limitations how to fix the scale s 0 which enters in ln s / s 0 resummation? α S is fixed at LL how to implement running and scale? energy-momentum is not conserved in BFKL approach note that this remains at any order: NLL, NNLL, ... in the usual collinear renormalisation group approach (à la DGLAP), this is naturally implemented in the usual renormalisation group approach (vanishing of the first moment of splitting function): technically, from the very beginning, one starts with non local matrix elements. The energy-momentum tensor corresponds to its first moment, which is protected by radiative corrections 9 / 54
IR diffusion along the BFKL ladder: (for t-channel gluons, k 2 ∼ − k 2 T ) at fixed α S : gaussian diffusion of k T : cigar-like picture (Bartels, Lotter) the more s increases, the larger is the broadness: Q 2 define l = ln (fixed from the probes) Λ 2 QCD and l ′ = ln k 2 ( k 2 =virtuality of an arbitrary exchanged gluon along the chain) Λ 2 then the typical width of the cigar is given by a diffusion picture: ∆ t ′ ∼ √ α S Y QCD ⇒ non-perturbative domain (NP) touched when ∆ t ′ ∼ √ α S Y ∼ t t’ t’ t’ (a) "banana" (b) asymptotic configuration t t t t t t NP NP NP y y y using a simple running implementation tell that the border of the cigare touches NP for Y ∼ b QCD t 3 ( b = 11 / 12 ) while the center of the cigar approaches NP when Y ∼ bt 2 ("banana structure") A more involved treatment of LL BFKL with running coupling (Ciafaloni, Colferai, Salam, Sasto) showed that the cigare is “swallowed” by NP in the middle of the ladder: one faces tunneling when Y ∼ t ! ⇒ IR safety doubtless 10 / 54

QCD in the Regge limit Higher order corrections Higher order corrections to BFKL kernel are known at NLL order (Lipatov Fadin; Camici, Ciafaloni), now for arbitrary impact parameter n ( α S ln s ) n resummation α S P impact factors are known in some cases at NLL γ ∗ → γ ∗ at t = 0 (Bartels, Colferai, Gieseke, Kyrieleis, Qiao) forward jet production (Bartels, Colferai, Vacca) γ ∗ → ρ in forward limit (Ivanov, Kotsky, Papa) ⇒ this leads to very large corrections with respect to LL rem: the main part of these corrections can be obtained from a physical principle, based on a kinematical constraint along the gluon ladder (which is subleading with respect to LL BFKL (Kwiecinski) However it is rather unclear whether this has anything to do with NLL correction: in principle this constraint would be satisfied when including LL+NLL+NNLL+NNNLL+.... Such a constraint is more related to in the mproved collinear resummed approach (see bellow) for which the vanishing of the first moment of the splitting function is natural. These perturbative instabilities means that an improved scheme is desirable 12 / 54
either use a physical motivation to fix the scale of the coupling running should be implemented at NLL scale is fixed starting from NNLL it has been suggested to use BLM scheme in order to fix the scale: cf γ ∗ γ ∗ → X total cross-section (Brodsky, Fadin, Lipatov, Kim, Pivovarov) and γ ∗ γ ∗ → ρρ exclusive process (Enberg, Pire, Szymanowski, S.W; Ivanov,Papa) either one uses a resummed approach inspired by compatibility with usual renormalization group approach (Salam; Ciafaloni, Colferai): in γ ∗ ( Q 1 ) γ ∗ ( Q 2 ) takes care of full DGLAP LL Q 1 ≫ Q 2 takes care of full anti-DGLAP LL Q 1 ≪ Q 2 fixes the relation between rapidity Y and s is a symmetric way compatible with DGLAP evolution implement running of α S back to the infrared diffusion problem, such a scheme enlarge the validity of perturbative QCD. simplified version (Khoze, Martin, Ryskin, Stirling) at fixed α S ! γ − 1 / 2 e ω Y d ω d γ k 2 1 Z Z k 3 k ′ 3 2 π i 2 π i k ′ 2 ω − ω ( γ ) at LL is replaced by simply performing 1 1 ω − ω ( γ ) ⇒ ω − ω ( γ, ω ) d ω ⇒ pole: one then solves ω = ω ( γ, ω ) d γ at large Y approximation ⇒ Saddle point in γ takes into account the main NLL corrections (within 7 % accuracy) 13 / 54
