abstract
We show that causality constrains the sign of quartic Riemann corrections to the Einstein-Hilbert action. Our constraint constitutes a restriction on candidate theories of quantum gravity.

Gravitational electric-magnetic duality at the light ring organizes and preserves quasinormal mode isospectrality in GR and selects duality-invariant higher-derivative corrections in effective field theories.
Multipositivity bounds derived from planar tree-level scattering amplitudes constrain Wilson coefficients of the chiral Lagrangian from below by the chiral anomaly.
Tree-level gravitational scattering under the equivalence principle mandates single-particle states in all irreducible representations constructible from a single seed charge, with equal interaction strengths.
Develops spinor-helicity formalism generalizing partial wave unitarity bounds for multi-particle scattering and spin-2 or higher-spin theories.
Causality from Shapiro delay and UV species/perturbativity bounds force the dynamical Chern-Simons coupling to be tiny for macroscopic gravitational systems.
