MI: THE INFRARED STRUCTURE OF GAUGE AMPLITUDES AND THE HIGH-ENERGY LIMIT
SEZIONE DI MILANO I will review recent progress in our understanding of the infrared structure
of multi-particle gauge theory amplitudes, paying special attention to the
high-energy (`Regge') limit. For massless gauge theories, the multi-particle
soft anomalous dimension is known to have a remarkably simple, dipole-like
form up to very high orders in perturbation theory, and subleading multipole
corrections are currently a subject of intense studies. In the high-energy limit, the dipole formula leads to a simple factorized expression for the amplitude, which automatically implies Reggeization of singular
contributions to t-channel exchanges. Furthermore, one can study the breakdown of Regge-pole factorization at high energy, starting at NNLL, and provide explicit expressions for the leading Regge-cut contributions to
high-energy logarithms. Lorenzo Magnea - Torino Univ.
