Outline
Motivation
Dual 5-d Geometry of High Energy scattering
BFKL vs BPST Pomeron: ( log2(s) » ¸ = g2YM Nc )
Eikonal for AdS5 Gravity: ( ¸ >> log2 s )
Eikonalization + confinement ) Froissart Bound

Phenomenological Motivation Diffraction production will dominate LHC events.
Diffraction is a leading contender for the discovery of the Higgs!
What is its rate?
% of non-diffractive events fall like 1/Etot
LHC Diffractive Higgs: Forward Proton 420m Exp.
Of course Jets are often cleaner and Diffraction is still badly understood.

Theoretical Motivation
QCD obeys the (non-perturbative) Froissart theorem:
¾Tot(p+p ) X) = m-2p C(m¼/mp) log2(s/s0) + L
1. Is C(m¼/mp) >0 ? What is its value?2. What are the events that give C > 0?3. Does the AdS/CFT provide a generic mechanism C>0?4. Can one in principle compute C(m¼/mp) on then “lattice”?

1. sum of leading large s contribution for perturbative series.
2. propagation in a shock wave gravitational background of target. (‘tHooft’s method)
Again in AdS5 space can do it both ways.
We start with sources at the boundary and write down Witten (AdS5 Feynman) diagrams for the “S-matrix” with a “hardwall” IR regulator.
Two approaches to Eikonal Approximation

Concluding remarks
The KK modes represents a matrix version of eikonal formula like super string scattering of Amati, Ciafaloni and Veneziano ( “string bits are frozen” ).
Unitarization: Hardwall (confining) eikonal sum (probably) saturates the Froissart --- work in progress. (Brower, Strassler and Tan)
More central collisions require non-perturbative --- triple Regge, fan diagrams, black hole or plasma ball deconfinement region etc. See color glass condensate phase?
