Proof of dispersion relations for the amplitude in theories with a compactified space dimension
Abstract
The analyticity properties of the scattering amplitude in the nonforward direction are investigated for a field theory in the manifold . A scalar field theory of mass is considered in Minkowski space to start with. Subsequently, one spatial dimension is compactified to a circle. The mass spectrum of the resulting theory is: (a) a massive scalar of mass, , same as the original five dimensional theory and (b) a tower of massive Kaluza-Klein states. We derive nonforward dispersion relations for scattering of the excited Kaluza-Klein states in the Lehmann-Symanzik-Zimmermann formulation of the theory. In order to accomplish this object, first we generalize the Jost-Lehmann-Dyson theorem for a relativistic field theory with a compact spatial dimension. Next, we show the existence of the Lehmann-Martin ellipse inside which the partial wave expansion converges. It is proved that the scattering amplitude satisfies fixed- dispersion relations when lies within the Lehmann-Martin ellipse.
