Non-Forward UV/IR Relations

High Energy Physics - Theory 2025-10-10 v1

Abstract

We study bounds arising from the analyticity and unitarity of scattering amplitudes in the context of effective field theories with massless particles. We provide an approach that only uses dispersion relations away from the forward limit. This is suitable to derive constraints in the presence of gravity, in a way that is robust with respect to radiative corrections. Our method not only allows us to avoid the Coulomb pole, but also the singularities associated with calculable loop effects, which would otherwise diverge.
