Remarks on analyticity and unitarity in the presence of a Strongly Interacting Light Higgs

Applying the three axiomatic criteria of Lorentz invariance, analyticity and unitarity to scattering amplitudes involving the Goldstone bosons and the Higgs boson, we derive a general sum rule for the Strongly Interacting Light Higgs Lagrangian. This sum rule connects the IR coefficient $c_H$ to the UV properties of the theory, and can be used, for instance, to capture the role of resonances in processes like $V_{\rm L}V_{\rm L}\to hh$ and $V_{\rm L}V_{\rm L}\to V_{\rm L}V_{\rm L}$, with $V=W^{\pm},Z$.
