Bootstrap Principle for the Spectrum and Scattering of Strings
Clifford Cheung, Aaron Hillman, Grant N. Remmen
We show that the Veneziano amplitude of string theory is the unique solution to an analytically solvable bootstrap problem. Uniqueness follows from two assumptions: faster than pow…

Uniqueness Criteria for the Virasoro-Shapiro Amplitude
Clifford Cheung, Aaron Hillman, Grant N. Remmen
The scattering amplitudes of string theory exhibit many extraordinary properties. But are they the unique mathematical objects to do so? Recently, it has been shown how the spectru…
