  1. Perturbative QCD Gauge/String Duality The QCD Pomeron In gauge theories with string-theoretical dual descriptions, the Pomeron emerges unambiguously. Pomeron can be associated with a ReggeizedMassive Graviton. Both the IR (soft) Pomeron and the UV (BFKL) Pomeronare dealt in a unified single step. BPST: Brower, Polchinski, Strassler, Tan, 2006 Key new results from AdS/CFT: • A single Pomeron Propagator incorp. both Soft and Hard components, • Eikonal summation over AdS3: * Wait for surprises! 1 *Conventional wisdom all needs to be re-examined!

  2. Non-Perturbative • Long-distance: Confinement • αP(0) ~ 1.08 • Fixed trans. Momenta • Shrinkage of Elastic Peak: <|t|> ~1/ log s • α’(0) ~ 0.3 Gev-2 • Diffusion in impact space BFKL vs Soft Pomeron • Perturbative QCD • Short-Distance • αBFKL (0) ~ 1.4 • Increasing Virtuality • No Shrinkage of elastic peak • Fixed-cut in t • Diffusion in Virtuality UV Pomeron (BFKL): Scale Invariance IR Pomeron (Soft Pomeron): Confinement

  3. Add Confining IR wall! Cutoff AdS5 IIb: Geometry of AdS/CFT and Scale Invariance z=1/r, Large Sizes

  4. Gauge/String Duality: Conformal Limit • C=+1: Pomeron <===> Graviton • C=-1: Odderon <===> Kalb-Ramond Field 3

  5. Analyticity: • Amplitude is crossing even. • With λ large, Amplitude has a Large Real Part. Purely real at λ →∞. • Need to know both Re [K] and Im [K] for all s>0. • Im [K] can be found more easily. Re [K] can be found by Derivative Dispersion Relation.

  6. Remarks on AdS3 Propagator: • Conformal Invariance, a function of a single AdS3 invariant. • Large λ ⇒ j ~ 2. • λ infinite, s large and fixed⇒ j=2, and Graviton exchange • λ and s infinite, ⇒ Pomeron exchange, in order to resolve “fine structure”, with

  7. Strong Coupling Pomeron Propagator--Conformal Limit • AdS-3 propagator: • BFKL kernel:
