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 spectral integrals and orthogonality relations.

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.

Bootstrap analysis of meromorphic observables in large-N QCD yields universal and SVZ-type bounds that constrain chiral Lagrangian parameters and link hadronic data to asymptotic freedom.
The Veneziano amplitude is the unique solution to a dual bootstrap from dispersive sum rules interpreted as moments, unitarity, and string monodromy or splitting conditions.
Defines IR-finite amplitudes M_E that preserve analyticity and unitarity to derive positivity bounds on EFTs including electromagnetism and gravity in D=4.
A primal S-matrix bootstrap framework parameterizes imaginary parts of partial waves, uses dispersion relations to enforce consistency, computes coupling bounds, and handles Regge behavior plus spinning states like glueballs.
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.
Dispersive bootstrap with unitarity, crossing and a Virasoro-inspired ansatz isolates the Virasoro-Shapiro amplitude in a small island for the gravity-pole-subtracted four-point amplitude in 10D supersymmetry.
Derives lower bound on collective mean free path ℓ = √(τ D) in Drude-Kadanoff-Martin model from Green's function bounds, implying Mott-Ioffe-Regel limit for lattice models.
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.
A universal forward-scattering description in long-range theories makes partial-wave amplitudes well-defined single-scale objects computable order-by-order without spurious IR dependence.
