One Higgs, Two Higgs, Red Higgs, Blue Higgs

We present a sum rule for Higgs fields in general representations under SU(2)LxU(1)y that follows from the connection between the Higgs couplings and the mechanism that gives the electroweak bosons their masses, and at the same time restricts these couplings. Sum rules that follow from perturbative unitarity will require us to include singly and doubly charged Higgses in our analysis. We examine the consequences of these sum rules for Higgs phenomenology in both model independent and model specific ways. Connection to sum rule based on dispersion relation analysis is also specified.
