Abstract
The study presents an analytic solution of the Balitsky-Kovchegov~(BK) equation in a particular kinematics. The solution is written in the momentum space and based on the eigenfunctions of the truncated Balitsky-Fadin-Kuraev-Lipatov~(BFKL) equation in the gauge adjoint representation, which was used for calculation of the Regge~(Mandelstam) cut contribution to the planar helicity amplitudes. We introduce an eigenfunction of the singlet BFKL equation constructed of the adjoint eigenfunction multiplied by a factor, which restores the dual conformal symmetry present in the adjoint and broken in the singlet BFKL equations. The proposed analytic BK solution correctly reproduces the initial condition and the high energy asymptotics of the scattering amplitude.
