Is there a geometric analogue to this, too; like the amplituhedron?

/? amplituhedron

From "Deflection of electromagnetic waves by pseudogravity in distorted photonic crystals" (2023) https://journals.aps.org/pra/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevA.108.0... :

> Amplituhedrons are also "quantum-geometric" "manifolds" (?); and so no Feynman diagrams.

Would this electron-phonon and polaron model make a better fusion induction welding simulator?
