Deep in saturation, Braun-Hamiltonian pomeron calculus predicts S_dd = (S_BK)^4 for dipole-dipole scattering, four powers of the standard estimate, but the paper's own unitary toy model contradicts this prediction.

abstract
We point out that the $s$-channel unitarity of QCD imposes meaningful constraints on a possible form of the QCD Reggeon Field Theory. We show that neither the BFKL nor JIMWLK nor Braun's Hamiltonian satisfy the said constraints. In a toy, zero transverse dimensional case we construct a model that satisfies the analogous constraint and show that at infinite energy it indeed tends to a "black disk limit" as opposed to the model with triple Pomeron vertex only, routinely used as a toy model in the literature.

Dipole-dipole scattering at high energy in the Pomeron field theory with Braun Hamiltonian and beyond
Deep in saturation, Braun-Hamiltonian pomeron calculus predicts S_dd = (S_BK)^4 for dipole-dipole scattering, four powers of the standard estimate, but the paper's own unitary toy model contradicts this prediction.
