abstract
The quest to discover new 3D CFTs has been intriguing for physicists. For this purpose, fuzzy sphere reguarlisation that studies interacting quantum systems defined on the lowest Landau level on a sphere has emerged as a powerful tool. In this paper, we discover a series of new CFTs with global symmetry $\mathrm{Sp}(N)$ in the fuzzy sphere models that are closely related to the $\mathrm{SO}(5)$ deconfined phase transition, and are described by a $\mathrm{Sp}(N)/(\mathrm{Sp}(M)\times \mathrm{Sp}(N-M))$ non-linear sigma model with a Wess-Zumino-Witten term. We numerically verify the emergent conformal symmetry by observing the integer-spaced conformal multiplets and studying the finite-size scaling of the conformality. We discuss possible candidates for these newly discovered CFTs, the most plausible ones being Chern-Simons-matter theories which have $N$ flavour of gapless bosons or fermions coupled to a non-Abelian (viz. $\mathrm{Sp}(1)$, $\mathrm{Sp}(2)$, etc.) Chern-Simons gauge field. Our work provides new avenues for studying interacting CFTs in 3D, possibly facilitating the non-perturbative study of critical gauge theories and previously undiscovered CFTs.

Chern-Simons-matter conformal field theory on fuzzy sphere: Confinement transition of Kalmeyer-Laughlin chiral spin liquid
A fuzzy-sphere exact diagonalization study shows the fIQH to bFQH transition is continuous, with emergent conformal symmetry and a single relevant singlet of scaling dimension Delta_S = 1.52(18).

Conformal Operator Flows of the Deconfined Quantum Criticality from $\mathrm{SO}(5)$ to $\mathrm{O}(4)$
A relevant scalar operator S persists from SO(5) to O(4) deconfined quantum criticality on the fuzzy sphere, indicating the O(4) transition is pseudo-critical rather than a genuine fixed point.

Conformal scalar field theory from Ising tricriticality on the fuzzy sphere
A bilayer quantum Hall fuzzy-sphere model, tuned to an Ising tricritical point, realizes the conformally coupled free scalar CFT, verified by matching spectra, operator content, and bosonic algebra.

3d Conformal Field Theories via Fuzzy Sphere Algebra
The fuzzy-sphere density-mode algebra is a genuine Lie algebra, but a direct density-mode realization of the 3d conformal algebra so(3,2) exists only for the two-electron system.

Non-Abelian topological superconductivity from melting Abelian fractional Chern insulators
Bandwidth tuning can melt a single ν=2/3 Jain fractional Chern insulator into five distinct superconductors, two with non-Abelian order, with higher-charge variants predicted at general Jain fillings.

The $O(N)$ Free-Scalar and Wilson-Fisher Conformal Field Theories on the Fuzzy Sphere
Fuzzy-sphere Hamiltonians realize the O(2), O(3) and O(4) Wilson-Fisher and free-scalar CFTs numerically, with spectra and correlators matching conformal bootstrap expectations.
