Modified homotopy approach for diffractive production in the saturation region

Abstract

In this paper we continue to develop the homotopy method for solving of the nonlinear evolution equation for the diffractive production in deep inelastic scattering. We introduce part of the nonlinear corrections as a first step of this approach. This simplified nonlinear evolution equation is solved analytically taking into account the initial and boundary conditions for the process. At the second step of our approach we demonstrated that the perturbative procedure can be used for the remaining parts of the nonlinear corrections. It turns out that these corrections are small and can be estimated in the regular iterative procedure. Published by the American Physical Society 2024
