We establish new bounds on the Grothendieck constant $K_G$: \[ \frac{6π}{11} \le K_G \le \fracπ{2\log(1+\sqrt2)} - 10^{-4}. \] Methodologically, our lower bound approach differs from previous works by establishing limitations on the asymptotically optimal Krivine schemes, rather than giving explicit constructions of gap instances. Our…
