We introduce the notion of branon jets, states of collinear flux tube excitations. We argue for the analyticity, crossing and unitarity of the multi-particle scattering of these jets and, through the S-matrix bootstrap, place bounds on a set of finite energy multi-particle sum rules. Such bounds define a matrioska of sorts with a smaller and smaller allowed regions as we impose more constraints. The Yang-Mills flux tube, as well as other interesting flux tube theories recently studied through lattice simulations, lie inside a tiny island hundreds of times smaller than the most general space of allowed two-dimensional theories.

  1. Unitary Dual-Resonance S-matrices

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Smearing Veneziano blocks over continuous Regge slopes yields local, analytic, crossing-symmetric S-matrices with full partial-wave unitarity and controllable second-sheet resonances.

  2. 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.

    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...
