Reggeization of N=8 Supergravity and N=4 Yang--Mills Theory

Abstract

We show that the gluon of N=4 Yang--Mills theory lies on a Regge trajectory, which then implies that the graviton of N=8 supergravity also lies on a Regge trajectory. This is consistent with the conjecture that N=8 supergravity is ultraviolet finite in perturbation theory.
