5. 5 The correlations among the initial partons are neglected in the derivation of the DGLAP equation. This assumption is invalid in the higher density region of partons, where the parton wave functions begin tospatially overlap. The corrections of the correlations among initial gluons to the elementary amplitude at small x should be considered. We add a possible initial gluon to Fig.1a step by step.

10. 10 Infrared divergences The evolution kernel has singularities,which relate to the emission or absorption of quantawith zero momentum. Since a correct theory is IR safe, the IR divergences are cancelled by combining real-and virtual-soft gluon emissions.

12. TOPT-Cutting rule 1.List all possible TOPT diagrams with different cuts. 2.The contributions of the cut diagrams have the identical integral kernel with only the following different factors R:

13. (a)The sign in the first factor is determined by the energy deficits; (b)The second factor takes a value of 1/2 if the probe-vertex inserts in the initial line; (c) function relates to the probe vertex.

90. 90 Solutions of the MD-BFKL equation A stronger shadowing suppresses the gluon density and even leads to the gluon disappearance below the saturation region. This unexpected effect is caused by a chaotic solution of the new equation

91. 91 Input distribution

92. 92 A unexpected solution The unintegrated gluon distribution function F(x,k^2) in the MD-BFKL equation begins its smooth evolution under suppression of gluon recombination like the solution of the BK equation. When x comes to a critical x_c, F(x,k^2) will oscillate aperiodically and the shadowing effect suddenly increases. This stronger shadowing breaks the balance between the gluon fusion and splitting.
