The Bethe-Salpeter equation for the direct-channel absorptive part of the scattering amplitude is analyzed in the ladder approximation to investigate the relationship between SO⁡(1,3) and SO⁡(1,2) crossed-channel partial-wave analyses. The SO⁡(1,2) expansion, used when the momentum transfer Q is spacelike, is studied in detail in the limit Qμ→0. Further, the connection between the SO⁡(1,3) and SO⁡(1,2) partial-wave amplitudes at Qμ = 0 is obtained explicitly, as is the familiar result that a Toller pole is equivalent to an infinite sequence of integrally spaced Regge poles at Qμ = 0.
