The S-matrix Bootstrap III: Higher Dimensional Amplitudes
read the original abstract
We consider constraints on the S-matrix of any gapped, Lorentz invariant quantum field theory in 3+1 dimensions due to crossing symmetry, analyticity and unitarity. We extremize cubic couplings, quartic couplings and scattering lengths relevant for the elastic scattering amplitude of two identical scalar particles. In the cases where our results can be compared with the older S-matrix literature they are in excellent agreement. We also extremize a cubic coupling in 2+1 dimensions which we can directly compare to a universal bound for a QFT in AdS. This paper generalizes our previous 1+1 dimensional results of arXiv:1607.06109 and arXiv:1607.06110.

Kontorovich-Lebedev-Fourier Space for de Sitter Correlators
A Kontorovich-Lebedev-Fourier space is built for (d+1)-dimensional de Sitter correlators from the Casimir operator of SO(1,d+1), producing rational propagators and Feynman rules that turn tree and loop diagrams into s...

Analytic Bootstrap of the Veneziano Amplitude
The Veneziano amplitude is the unique outcome of an analytic dual bootstrap from dispersive sum rules, unitarity, and either string monodromy or splitting and hidden-zero conditions.

The Phases of the Scalar S-Matrix Island
The boundary of the scalar S-matrix island divides into phases with universal high-energy asymptotics and resonance content, each corresponding to a different UV completion mechanism for gapped scalars.

Sampling the Graviton Pole and Deprojecting the Swampland
A sampling-based bootstrap for graviton poles in EFTs yields non-projective bounds that fix the EFT cutoff scale relative to the Planck mass, with M/M_P ≲ 7.8 in D=5.
