Photon impact factor and -factorization for DIS in the next-to-leading order
The photon impact factor for the BFKL pomeron is calculated in the
next-to-leading order (NLO) approximation using the operator expansion in
Wilson lines. The result is represented as a NLO -factorization formula
for the structure functions of small- deep inelastic scattering.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures, typos corrected. arXiv admin note: substantial

Photon impact factor in the next-to-leading order

impact factor for small- deep inelastic scattering is calculated using the
operator expansion in Wilson lines.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
NLO evolution of color dipoles
The small- deep inelastic scattering in the saturation region is governed
by the non-linear evolution of Wilson-line operators. In the leading
logarithmic approximation it is given by the BK equation for the evolution of
color dipoles. In the next-to-leading order the BK equation gets contributions
from quark and gluon loops as well as from the tree gluon diagrams with
quadratic and cubic nonlinearities. We calculate the gluon contribution to
small-x evolution of Wilson lines (the quark part was obtained earlier).Comment: 43 pages, 12 figure
Gluon TMD in particle production from low to moderate x
We study the rapidity evolution of gluon transverse momentum dependent

Analyticity and crossing symmetry of the eikonal amplitudes in gauge theories
After a brief review and a more refined analysis of some relevant analyticity
properties (when going from Minkowskian to Euclidean theory) of the high-energy
parton-parton and hadron-hadron scattering amplitudes in gauge theories,
described nonperturbatively, in the eikonal approximation, by certain
correlation functions of two Wilson lines or two Wilson loops near the light
cone, we shall see how these same properties lead to a nice geometrical
interpretation of the crossing symmetry between quark-quark and quark-antiquark
eikonal amplitudes and also between loop-loop eikonal amplitudes. This relation
between Minkowskian-to-Euclidean analyticity properties and crossing symmetry
is discussed in detail and explicitly tested in the first orders of
perturbation theory. Some nonperturbative examples existing in the literature
are also discussed.Comment: Completely revised version with new comments, new references and new

Higher-twist corrections to gluon TMD factorization

High-enegy effective action from scattering of QCD shock waves
At high energies, the relevant degrees of freedom are Wilson lines - infinite
gauge links ordered along straight lines collinear to the velocities of
colliding particles. The effective action for these Wilson lines is determined
by the scattering of QCD shock waves. I develop the symmetric expansion of the
effective action in powers of strength of one of the shock waves and calculate
the leading term of the series. The corresponding first-order effective action,
symmetric with respect to projectile and target, includes both up and down fan
diagrams and pomeron loops.Comment: 15 pages, 10 eps figure
Scattering of shock waves in QCD
The cross section of heavy-ion collisions is represented as a double
functional integral with the saddle point being the classical solution of the
Yang-Mills equations with boundary conditions/sources in the form of two shock
waves corresponding to the two colliding ions. I develop the expansion of this
classical solution in powers of the commutator of the Wilson lines describing
the colliding particles and calculate the first two terms of the expansion.Comment: 23 pages, 13 figure
