Abstract

The local reggeon field theory is studied perturbatively taking advantage of the PT symmetry in the Hamiltonian formulation. In the lowest non-trivial order we show that the pomeron interactions renormalize the slope. In the same order we find a non-local pair potential acting between pomerons, which has a singular structure. However, the analysis of the scattering operator shows that at small coupling constant bound states do not appear so that the two-particle spectrum is not changed.
