✦ Synopsis

An algorithm is presented which allows the complete leading logarithm approximation to parton-parton scattering with initial and final state jet evolution to be calculated, including fully the acausal quantum correlations arising from spin effects. The computational complexity of the algorithm grows only linearly with the number of vertices in a graph.
