The novel concept of entanglement renormalization and its corresponding tensor network renormalization technique have been highly successful in developing a controlled real space renormalization group (RG) scheme. Numerically approximate fixed-point (FP) tensors are widely used to extract the conformal data of the underlying conformal field theory (CFT) describing critical phenomena. In this paper, we present an explicit analytical construction of the FP tensor for 2D rational CFT. We define it as a correlation function between the "boundary-changing operators" (BCO) on triangles. Our construction fully captures all the real-space RG conditions. We also provide concrete examples, such as Ising, Yang-Lee and Tri-critical Ising models to compute the scaling dimensions explicitly based on the corresponding FP tensor. The BCO descendants turn out to be an optimal basis such that truncation in bond dimensions naturally produces comparable accuracies with the leading existing FP algorithms. Interestingly, our construction of FP tensors is closely related to a strange correlator, where the holographic picture naturally emerges. Our results also open a new door towards understanding CFT in higher dimensions.

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A 2-form higher Berry connection on boundary conformal manifolds is defined from boundary-condition-changing operator OPE phases; it reproduces the B-field and WZ term in string theory examples.

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A framework called SymQRG identifies 3D quantum gravity as the symmetry-preserving RG flow of 2D CFTs, realized discretely by U_q(SL(2,R)) 6j symbols.

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Open Virasoro TQFT equals fixed-length/angle 3d gravity path integrals on compact regions and yields the CTV–scalar Virasoro relation via open-closed duality.

    The authors introduce a 'simplex tensor network' RG algorithm for 3D symmetric boundary theories of 3+1D Dijkgraaf-Witten symTFTs and use it to numerically map the Z2 phase diagram, including the 3D Ising transition.
