Sub-eikonal corrections to scattering amplitudes at high energy
read the original abstract
Most of the progress in high-energy Quantum Chromodynamics has been obtained within the eikonal approximation and infinite Wilson-line operators. Evolution equations of Wilson lines with respect to the rapidity parameter encode the dynamics of the hadronic processes at high energy. However, even at high energy many interesting aspects of hadron dynamics are not accessible within the eikonal approximation, the spin physics being an obvious example. The higher precision reached by the experiments and the possibility to probe spin dynamics at future Electron Ion Colliders make the study of deviations from eikonal approximation especially timely. In this paper I derive the sub-eikonal quark and gluon propagators which can serve as a starting point of studies of these effects.

Sub-eikonal stress and model dependence of the small-$x$ gluon D-term
The gluon D-term at small x is a next-to-eikonal stress observable whose sign is not determined by the dipole or saturation profile.

Sub-eikonal Structure of High-Energy Deep-Inelastic Scattering
Sub-eikonal corrections to dipole structure functions F_L, F_T and the g1-related asymmetry are derived in a gauge-invariant dipole operator basis, with F_L shown to be finite and the others logarithmically divergent.
