abstract

We develop a framework to derive consistency constraints on gravitational Regge amplitudes based on the finite energy sum rules (FESRs), which directly connect gravitational Regge amplitudes at a finite ultraviolet scale with infrared physics without suffering from super-Planckian physics. For illustration, we consider four-point scattering of an identical massless scalar coupled to gravity. First, we derive multiple FESRs without relying on the $s\text{-}t\text{-}u$ permutation invariance. We then make use of FESRs, crossing symmetry, and other principles such as unitarity, to derive bounds on the Regge parameters. The bounds result in infrared finite gravitational positivity bounds in four spacetime dimensions.
