Abstract

We employ the methods of the renormalization group to investigate the structure of Pomeron Green's functions near l=1, t=0 in a theory where only four-Pomeron couplings are present. When certain conditions on the renormalized couplings are met, the l1, t0 behavior of the theory is governed by free effective couplings (the theory is "infrared-free"). In this situation the renormalized Pomeron trajectory is of the form α(t)=1+At+Bt(lnCt)5 for t>0, where A, B, and C are constants; the total cross section behaves as σT(s)γ1+γ2(lnlns)5, with γ1 and γ2 positive.
