We use the numerical S-matrix bootstrap method to obtain bounds on the two leading Wilson coefficients of the chiral lagrangian controlling the low-energy dynamics of massless pions thus providing a proof of concept that the numerical S-matrix bootstrap can be used to derive non-perturbative bounds on EFTs in more than two spacetime dimensions.

  1. Analytic Boundaries of Infinite-Spin-Tower Amplitudes from Hidden Zero

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The exact analytic boundary of unitary infinite-spin-tower amplitudes is derived and shown to be maximal unless energy poles accumulate.

  2. Bootstrapping black holes at low impact parameter

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    After subtracting the eikonal carrier, the residual SDR spectrum in six dimensions organizes into a cap-saturated low-impact band, an empty gap, and Regge-like ridges whose weak-coupling edge is the G_N=0 baseline.

  3. Strings from Almost Nothing

    hep-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Ultrasoft, minimally structured scattering amplitudes are forced onto the Veneziano and Virasoro-Shapiro amplitudes of string theory.

  4. Splitting Regions and Shrinking Islands from Higher Point Constraints

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Imposing 5-point split conditions and unitarity bounds selects the string beta function as the unique 4-point amplitude, up to equal-mass infinite spin towers.

  5. Cross-Section Bootstrap: Unveiling the Froissart Amplitude

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A universal finite-energy upper bound on the integrated cross-section for identical scalars is derived; the conjectured saturating "Froissart amplitude" shows Regge trajectories, a rising cross-section, and annulus-li...

  6. Bootstrapping Gravity with Crossing Symmetric Dispersion Relations

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A crossing-symmetric dispersion-relation bootstrap reproduces known gravitational EFT bounds and gives new tree-level limits on the graviton coupling to a massive spin-4 state.
