Abstract
We impose the requirement of good-high-energy behavior on ffW+W- scattering amplitudes for effective theory of electroweak interactions in composite models. We find that there exists a set of constraints on the form factors which we call the "evolution condition" and which any such theory should obey. According to this condition the electromagnetic and weak interactions are "unified" in a less stringent way than by the so-called "unification condition." In addition, the effective theory should have a well defined evolution governed by the constraints on the form factors. We have checked this condition on several -W mixing schemes. Possible experimental tests are discussed. © 1983 The American Physical Society.
