Abstract
We compute scattering in massive theory on to NLO. We perform the calculations using "denominator regularization" instead of the usual dimensional regularization, which allows for asymmetric configurations of the . We give a transparent derivation of and equation for the analytic continuation of the generalized Epstein zeta function. We show that the Optical Theorem is satisfied and generalize a conjecture by Hardy on square counting functions. We comment on the implications.
