[34] For positive (negative) k+ singularities of the integrand in the complex k− plane are all in the lower (upper) half- plane and the k− integral vanishes. If k+ = 0 the integrand is k− independent and k− integration is divergent. Thus the result has to be proportional to δ(k+). The coefficient can be determined by integrating over k+ and comparing with the covariant result.

Abstract
Recently we have shown that exclusive QCD photon-induced reactions at low Mandelstam-t are best described by Regge exchanges in the entire scaling region, and not only for low values of Bjorken- x. In this paper we explore this crucial Regge behavior in Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering from the point of view of collinear factorization, with the proton tensor written in terms of Generalized Parton Distributions, and we reproduce this feature. Thus it appears that in the Bjorken limit, a large class of hard, low-t exclusive processes are more sensitive to the meson cloud of the proton than to its fundamental quark structure. These process will then be described most efficiently by process- dependent Regge Exclusive Amplitudes rather than by universal Generalized Parton Distributions. We introduce such Regge Exclusive Amplitudes for Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering.
