Special functions, transcendentals and their numerics
Cyclotomic polylogarithms are reviewed and new results concerning the special
constants that occur are presented. This also allows some comments on previous
literature results using PSLQ
Systematics of the cusp anomalous dimension
We study the velocity-dependent cusp anomalous dimension in supersymmetric
Yang-Mills theory. In a paper by Correa, Maldacena, Sever, and one of the
present authors, a scaling limit was identified in which the ladder diagrams
are dominant and are mapped onto a Schrodinger problem. We show how to solve
the latter in perturbation theory and provide an algorithm to compute the
solution at any loop order. The answer is written in terms of harmonic
polylogarithms. Moreover, we give evidence for two curious properties of the
result. Firstly, we observe that the result can be written using a subset of
harmonic polylogarithms only, at least up to six loops. Secondly, we show that
in a light-like limit, only single zeta values appear in the asymptotic
expansion, again up to six loops. We then extend the analysis of the scaling
limit to systematically include subleading terms. This leads to a
Schrodinger-type equation, but with an inhomogeneous term. We show how its
solution can be computed in perturbation theory, in a way similar to the
leading order case. Finally, we analyze the strong coupling limit of these
subleading contributions and compare them to the string theory answer. We find
agreement between the two calculations.Comment: 33 pages, 4 figures. Complete LO six-loop result added. Typos

On the Resummed Gluon Anomalous Dimension and Structure Functions at Small
The impact of the recently evaluated `irreducible' contributions to the resummed next-to-leading logarithmic small-x anomalous dimension fl gg is evaluated for the unpolarized parton densities and structure functions of the nucleon. These new terms diminish the gluon distribution and are found to overcompensate the enhancement caused by the resummed leading logarithmic small-x anomalous dimension and the quarkonic contributions beyond next-to-leading order. PACS: 12.38.Cy, 13.60.Hb Phys. Rev. D57 (1998) The structure functions of the proton in unpolarized deep--inelastic scattering (DIS) show a steep rise towards very small Bjorken-x values, which becomes stronger with increasing resolution Q 2 . This behavior is a consequence both of the shape of the non-perturbative quark singlet and gluon initial distributions -- x\Sigma and xg rise roughly like x \Gamma0:2 for a starting scale Q 2 0 ' 4 GeV 2 -- and of the form of the evolution kernels governing the renormalization group e..

We report on recent results on higher twist contributions to the unpolarized structure functions at NLO in the large region and constraints on the twist--3 contribution to polarized structure function
Integral relations for twist -2 and twist - three contributions to polarized structure functions
We discuss the relations between the twist 2 and twist 3 contributions to polarized deep-inelastic scattering structure functions both for neutral and charged current interactions which are predicted by the operator product expansion in lowest order in QCD
Vector Leptoquark Pair Production in
The cross section for vector leptoquark pair production in e + e \Gamma annihilation is calculated for the case of finite anomalous gauge boson couplings fl;Z and fl;Z . The minimal cross section is found to behave / fi 7 , leading to weaker mass bounds in the threshold range than in models studied previously. Various extensions of the Standard Model predict bosonic states carrying both lepton and quark quantum numbers, the leptoquarks. If their couplings are baryon and lepton number conserving, cf. see [1], these states may even exist in the mass range accessible at high energy colliders. Stringent bounds on the leptoquark--fermion couplings lq are derived from low energy data [2]. In the mass range M V 1 TeV they are required to be much smaller than the electromagnetic coupling. On the other hand the bosonic leptoquark couplings cannot be arbitrarily small but are determined by the respective gauge couplings and eventual anomalous couplings. In this note we extend the ana..
