Abstract

We indicate that the random aperiodic oscillation of the gluon distributions in a modified Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov (BFKL) equation has positive Lyapunov exponents. This first example of chaos in QCD evolution equations raises the sudden disappearance of the gluon distributions at a critical small value of the Bjorken variable x and may stop the increase of the new particle events in an ultra high energy hadron collider.
