Black disk, maximal Odderon and unitarity

We argue that the so-called maximal Odderon contribution breaks the ‘black disk’ behavior of the asymptotic amplitude, since the cross section of the events with Large Rapidity Gaps grows faster than the total cross section. That is the ‘maximal Odderon’ is not consistent with unitarity.
