We analyze the relation between evolution equations at low x that have been derived in different approaches in the last several years. We show that the equation derived by Balitsky and Kovchegov is obtained from the Jalilian-Marian-Kovner-Leonidov-Weigert (JKLW) equation in the limit of small induced charge density. We argue that the higher nonlinearities resummed by the JKLW equation correspond, in physical terms, to the breakdown of the eikonal approximation when the gluon fields in the target are large.

  1. TMD factorization in diffractive heavy-quark production in photon-nucleus collisions

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    TMD factorization holds for diffractive massive quark-antiquark-gluon production in the correlation limit, with a new mass-dependent quark diffractive TMD in the antiquark-gluon hard pair case.

  2. Forward trijet production in proton-nucleus collisions: gluon initiated channel

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    The gluon-initiated trijet channel in forward pA collisions is calculated at leading order in CGC, revealing a four-gluon vertex structure matching instantaneous terms and showing how rapidity and collinear divergence...

  3. Quark Reggeization in QCD from the Wilson line formalism

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Derives Reggeized quark operator from Wilson lines and its nonlinear rapidity RG evolution in QCD, recovering known Regge trajectories in dilute and large-Nc limits after signature projection.

  4. Collinearly Improved Balitsky-Kovchegov Evolution of the Gluon Wigner Distribution

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Collinearly improved BK evolution shifts the elliptic node position and alters the rapidity and hard-scale dependence of the coherent dijet cos2φ signal rather than producing a simple normalization change.

  5. From target to projectile: CSS evolution of quark TMD in different light-cone gauges

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    One-loop quark TMD calculation in projectile light-cone gauge produces CSS evolution equations whose rapidity structure is compared to the target gauge result.
