In D>4, gravitational EFTs with higher-derivative operators allow asymptotic superluminality around black holes, but in D=4 the asymptotic causal structure is identical to Schwarzschild and insensitive to corrections.
Non-minimal three-point interactions induce negative one-loop running of Wilson coefficients in gravitational EFTs, yet graviton loops generate positive IR contributions that dominate the bounds after smearing if the species number is bounded.
Defines IR-finite amplitudes M_E that preserve analyticity and unitarity to derive positivity bounds on EFTs including electromagnetism and gravity in D=4.
In scalar Gauss-Bonnet gravity, black hole solutions below a tunable minimum mass lose hyperbolicity in perturbations, corresponding to EFT breakdown, but scalar charge stays bounded above.
Dynamical Chern-Simons gravity is bounded by causality and perturbativity to produce only tiny corrections on macroscopic gravitational systems.
Numerical solutions show that leading effective-field-theory corrections to the Kerr metric grow with spin and are largest near extremality.
The analysis shows that analyticity bounds in Lorentz-broken theories require gapped excitations to propagate slower than gapless ones at low momenta relative to the mass gap.
