High energy observables are characterized by large electroweak radiative co
rrections of infrared origin; double logarithms are present even for inclus
ive cross sections, thus violating the Bloch-Nordsieck theorem. This effect
, related to the initial states carrying non-Abelian isospin charges, is he
re investigated for any inclusive cross section in the SU(2) x U(1) symmetr
ic limit, that is appropriate for energies much higher than the weak scale.
We develop a general formalism allowing to calculate the all order double
log resummed cross sections once the hard (tree level) ones are known. The
relevant cases of fermion-fermion, fermion-boson and boson-boson scattering
are discussed. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
