The Regge Limit for Green Functions in Conformal Field Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We define a Regge limit for off-shell Green functions in quantum field theory, and study it in the particular case of conformal field theories (CFT). Our limit differs from that defined in arXiv:0801.3002, the latter being only a particular corner of the
