Description
High-energy asymptotics of QCD, so-called Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) approach with resummation of the leading energy logarithms in all orders of perturbation theory will be discussed. Phenomenological applications, such as inclusive jet production in hadron collisions and total cross section for highly-virtual gamma-gamma scattering will be considered. BFKL predictions will be compared with preliminary data of D0 & CDF Collaborations at the Tevatron and L3 & OPAL Collaborations at the LEP.
