Within the leading logarithm lnx accuracy, we made approximations Symmetry relations Beppu, Koike, Tanaka & Yoshida 2010 Schafer, ZJ 2013 The asymptotic behavior at small x
Phenomenological implications I. Gluon Sivers function could change sign at small x II. Gluon Sivers function dies out quickly with decreasing x III. C-odd tri-gluon correlation dominates SSA at small x A UT → Constant, when x → 0 ?

Elastic hadron-hadron scattering In Regge theory, an object exchanged called pomeron, C=+1 In QCD, pomeron modeled as two gluon exchange(Low-Nussinov Pomeron) BFKL pomeron, resuming leading higher order corrections log(s) Leading to the growth of cross section with energy
Odderon Regge exchange with vacuum quantum numbers except for C=-1 Lukaszuk & Niolescu,1974 Responsible for the difference between proton-proton and proton-antiproton scatterings.
