Unitarity and Saturation in the Dipole Formulation

Abstract

This talk reviews briefly some of the main results of the small-x dipole formulation with regards to unitarity corrections. It illustrates the correspondence between unitarity and saturation corrections in the dipole approach and multiple t-channel pomeron exchange in the traditional BFKL view, and discusses how one can estimate and understand the effects of saturation.
