We prove, based solely on crossing symmetry and unitarity, that meromorphic amplitudes, with or without subtractions, cannot produce a reggeizing amplitude if they contain any finite number of Regge trajectories, and show that this excludes the existence of such amplitudes altogether.

We investigate how string theory can resolve this singularity. First, we study the string-scale version of the static non-uniform black strings that branch off at the instability threshold: “string-ball strings”, which are linearly extended, self-gravitating configurations of string balls obtained in the Horowitz-Polchinski (HP) approach to near-Hagedorn string states. We construct non-uniform HP strings in spatial dimensions <i>d</i> ≤ 6 and show that, as the inhomogeneity increases, they approach localized HP balls. We also examine the thermodynamic properties of the different phases in the canonical and microcanonical ensembles. We find that, for a sufficiently small mass, the uniform HP string will be stable and not evolve into a non-uniform or localized configuration. Building on these results and independent evidence from the evolution of the black string instability with <i>α</i>^<i>′</i> corrections, we propose that, at least in <i>d</i> = 4, 5, string theory slows and eventually halts the pinching evolution at a classically stable stringy neck.

Here, we focus instead on the perturbative dynamics, shown to arise from forward scattering between the parton constituents of the proton and the nuclear medium. The new contributions to the TMD Drell-Yan cross section are derived up to next-to-leading order in the strong coupling constant, and to the first order in the medium opacity. We demonstrate that the collinear and rapidity divergences related to parton showers in the nucleus and the coherent nature of radiation due to Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal effect lead to i) an in-medium renormalization group equation that encodes the transverse momentum dependence of parton energy loss, and ii) a Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov evolution equation with a restricted phase space for the forward scattering cross section.

Remarkably, these excitations are fully determined by a layered set of <i>linear</i> equations. The fields responsible for carrying the momentum are parameterized by arbitrary functions of a null direction, and have exactly the same structure as in brane world-volume constructions.
