Method of Analytic Evolution of Flat Distribution Amplitudes in QCD
  A new analytical method of performing ERBL evolution is described. The main goal is to develop an approach that works for distribution amplitudes that do not vanish at the end points, for which the standard method of expansion in Gegenbauer polynomials is inefficient. Two cases of the initial DA are considered: a purely flat DA, given by the same constant for all x, and an antisymmetric DA given by opposite constants for x <1/2 and x>1/2. For a purely flat DA, the evolution is governed by an overall (x (1-x))^t dependence on the evolution parameter t times a factor that was calculated as an expansion in t. For an antisymmetric flat DA, an extra overall factor |1-2x|^{2t} appears due to a jump at x=1/2. A good convergence was observed in the t < 1/2 region. For larger t, one can use the standard method of the Gegenbauer expansion.
