abstract
The space of Wilson coefficients of EFT that can be UV completed into consistent theories was recently shown to be described analytically by a positive geometry, termed the EFThedron. However, this geometry, as well as complementary numerical methods of semi-definite programming, have so far focused on the positivity of the partial wave expansion, which allows bounding only ratios of couplings. In this paper we describe how the unitarity upper bound of the partial waves can be incorporated. This new problem can be formulated in terms of the well known $L$-moment problem, which we generalize and solve from a geometrical perspective. We find the non-projective generalization of the EFThedron has an infinite number of non-linear facets, which in some cases have remarkably simple descriptions. We use these results to derive bounds on single couplings, finding that the leading derivative operators are bounded by unity, when normalized by the cut-off scale and loop factors. For general operators of mass dimension $2k$ we find the upper bound is heavily suppressed at large $k$, with an $1/k$ fall-off.

Bootstrapping black holes at low impact parameter
After eikonal subtraction, finite-grid SDR bootstrap extremal spectra support a cap-saturated black-hole-scale band and Regge-like ridge while leaving the intervening gap mostly empty.

Bootstrapping black holes at low impact parameter
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.

Analytic Bootstrap of the Veneziano Amplitude
The Veneziano amplitude is the unique outcome of an analytic dual bootstrap from dispersive sum rules, unitarity, and either string monodromy or splitting and hidden-zero conditions.

Understanding Anomalous Magnetothermal Transport via Disentangling Shear and Compression Phonons
Mode-selective spin-phonon coupling in spin-orbit-coupled Mott insulators generates a peak-dip-peak field dependence in spin heat current via Landauer transport and exact diagonalization.

Sampling the Graviton Pole and Deprojecting the Swampland
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.
