At relative rapidity $iu$, the analytically continued sum of the constituent four-momentum vectors is on the bound-state mass shell with the displayed mass. For equal constituents, rapidities $\chi \pm iu/2$ sum to $2m_a\cos (u/2)(\cosh \chi ,\sinh \chi )$. A pole at $u=0$ is at threshold rather than a strictly bound state.

The residue of a meromorphic function $f$ at an isolated singularity $a$ is the coefficient of $(z-a{)}^{-1}$ in its Laurent series. At a simple pole,

Removing the completion's poles produces an entire function with $\xi (0)=\xi (1)=1/2$ and $\xi (s)=\xi (1-s)$. Its zeros are the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Its finite order allows Hadamard factorization, while the xi modulus criterion for the Riemann hypothesis characterizes their horizontal location.

The direct channel combines the two incoming four-momentum vectors. A one-particle pole in this channel has the intermediate particle's squared mass equal to $s$. Imaginary rapidity differences can satisfy this mass relation for a bound state even though there is no pole at real physical scattering rapidity.

With a specified ordering of external legs, this crossed channel carries the difference between an incoming and an outgoing energy-momentum vector. A one-particle exchange pole requires that difference to be on the exchanged particle's mass shell. Ordered amplitudes in one spatial dimension can label the crossed invariant using the difference of the two rapidity-parameterized external momenta; the external-leg convention fixes which crossed invariant is named $t$.

The second breather is a bound pair of first breathers with constituent shifts $\pm ia$. The bound-state fusion of factorized S-matrices gives $S_{2,1}=S_{1,1}(\vartheta +ia)S_{1,1}(\vartheta -ia)$, which factors as displayed. The nearest physical-strip pole at $\vartheta =ia$ is a crossed-channel exchange of the first breather. At $n=3$ the more distant center pole is double, without changing that nearest-pole interpretation.

At renormalized coupling $\gamma =8\pi /n$, the kink-antikink transmission poles lie at $\vartheta =i\pi (1-k/n)$. The relativistic bound-state mass from a rapidity pole gives the displayed increasing breather masses. The kink mass is $M=mn/\pi$, and $k=n$ is an excluded threshold state. No breathers occur at $n=1$; scattering involving a physical second breather requires $n\ge 3$.

For the unit-modulus hyperbolic scattering block with elementary mass $m$, a pair bound at rapidity difference $iu$ has mass $m_2=2m\cos (u/2)$. Bootstrap fusion with another elementary particle gives a further direct pole at $3iu/2$. It is inside the physical rapidity strip with positive imaginary residue only for $0<u<2\pi /3$. In that range the new bound state has rest-frame constituent rapidities $iu,0,-iu$, so its energy is $m(1+2\cos u)=m\sin (3u/2)/\sin (u/2)$. Charges add at the bound-state vertex. At $u=2\pi /3$ the apparent pole cancels; beyond that point it lies outside the physical strip. The formula is conditional on this particular scattering block and its direct-pole interpretation, not a universal three-body binding law.

For $2\le T\le x$, the truncated Perron formula and a contour shift give the displayed form of the Riemann–von Mangoldt explicit formula. The pole at one contributes $x$ and the Nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function contribute the finite sum. One can choose a separated height in $[T,T+1]$ and then restore $T$ using the local zero count for the Riemann zeta function. The error absorbs the half-weight discrepancy at a prime power. Outside this range of $T$, one needs the fuller error with the near-integer terms retained.

For real $u$, this scalar S-matrix block satisfies $S_u(\theta )S_u(-\theta )=1$ and Hermitian analyticity of a two-particle S-matrix. It therefore has modulus one for real rapidity differences. For $0<u<\pi$ its pole at $\theta =iu$ has residue $2i\sin u$ and admits a direct-channel bound-state pole interpretation. Its crossed block is $\cosh [(\theta -iu)/2]/\cosh [(\theta +iu)/2]$. The endpoints $u=0$ and $u=\pi$ are removable degeneracies giving constant amplitudes, so a particle cannot be inferred there from the uncancelled denominator alone. This block specifies an amplitude; a complete theory must also obey the remaining crossing symmetry and bootstrap fusion constraints.

For a period lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{C}$, the Weierstrass elliptic function is the normally convergent lattice sumIt is an even elliptic function with a double pole of principal part $(z-\omega {)}^{-2}$ and zero residue at every point $\omega$ of the period lattice.

For one four-component Dirac field with scalar interaction $-y\bar{\psi }\psi \varphi$ and the mostly-plus propagator convention, the fermion loop numerator is $4[M^2-k\cdot (k-p)]$. Reduce it to a bubble and tadpole: $-4y^2[(2M^2+p^2/2)J-I]$. Dimensional regularization gives pole parts $J=2/(\epsilon 16{\pi }^2)$ and $I=-2M^2/(\epsilon 16{\pi }^2)$. The local pole then requires both wavefunction renormalization and a scalar mass counterterm.

For a nonzero elliptic function with period lattice $\Lambda$, its zeros of a function $a_j$ and poles $b_j$, repeated with their multiplicities, have equal total number and satisfy ${\sum }_j{a}_j-{\sum }_j{b}_j\in \Lambda$. Choose a fundamental parallelogram avoiding all zeros and poles on its boundary. The argument principle applied to $f^{\prime }/f$ gives equality of the numbers. Applying the residue theorem to $z{f}^{\prime }/f$ gives their difference of sums. Pairing opposite edges, the extra factors are the two lattice generators multiplied by integrals of $f^{\prime }/f$ along an edge. These integrals are integer multiples of $2\pi i$, because the endpoints have the same nonzero function value. Thus the difference of sums is a lattice element. This links zeros of a pulled-back line to the chord-and-tangent group law.
