Abstract
An effective non-local quantum field theory is constructed, which describes the interaction of pomerons in high-colored QCD. The theory includes both splitting and merging triple pomeron vertexes and diagrams with pomeronic loops. The Schwinger–Dyson equations for the ‘physical’ pomeron are written. Conformal invariance allows one to reduce the theory to the old-fashioned Gribov pomeron theory with an infinite number of pomerons, one of which is supercritical.
