abstract

We develop new tools for isolating CFTs using the numerical bootstrap. A "cutting surface" algorithm for scanning OPE coefficients makes it possible to find islands in high-dimensional spaces. Together with recent progress in large-scale semidefinite programming, this enables bootstrap studies of much larger systems of correlation functions than was previously practical. We apply these methods to correlation functions of charge-0, 1, and 2 scalars in the 3d $O(2)$ model, computing new precise values for scaling dimensions and OPE coefficients in this theory. Our new determinations of scaling dimensions are consistent with and improve upon existing Monte Carlo simulations, sharpening the existing decades-old $8\sigma$ discrepancy between theory and experiment.

  1. The Bootstrap of Points and Lines

    hep-th 2025-06 accept novelty 8.0 of 10

    A mixed-correlator bootstrap for 2D boundary CFTs produces new rigorous bounds on boundary entropy, bulk-to-boundary OPE coefficients, and gap spectra, tested on Ising and free boson and applied to su(2)_2 WZW.

  2. Bootstrapping the 3d Ising Stress Tensor

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    The mixed σ, ε, T bootstrap gives Δσ = 0.518148806(24), Δε = 1.41262528(29), and new OPE coefficients for the critical 3d Ising CFT.

  3. Understanding Anomalous Magnetothermal Transport via Disentangling Shear and Compression Phonons

    cond-mat.str-el 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Mode-selective spin-phonon coupling of shear versus compression phonons produces a peak-dip-peak magnetothermal heat current in spin-orbit-coupled Mott insulators.

  4. Redundancy Channels in the Conformal Bootstrap

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Redundant operators motivate spectral gaps that block accidental symmetry enhancement, yielding the first bootstrap island for the 3D cubic CFT that excludes the O(3) model.

  5. Disturbing news about the $d=2+\epsilon$ expansion

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A protected operator forces the O(N) nonlinear sigma model fixed point in 2+epsilon dimensions to be a different CFT family from the Wilson-Fisher O(N) fixed point for finite N.

  6. The tricritical Ising CFT and conformal bootstrap

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    First conformal-bootstrap islands for the tricritical Ising CFT in d=2.5 and d=2.75, consistent with Padé interpolations between the 3−ε expansion and the exact 2d minimal model.

  7. Surprises in the Ordinary: $O(N)$ Invariant Surface Defect in the $\epsilon$-expansion

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The authors compute defect CFT data to third order in the epsilon expansion and discover approximate 'shadow' relations between surface and bulk scaling dimensions.

  8. Bootstrapping 3D Conformal Field Theories with Product Analytic Functionals

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.5 of 10

    A bootstrap method using product analytic functionals gives stronger, faster-converging bounds in three-dimensional conformal field theory, including a new kink near external dimension 4.16.

  9. Accurate boundary bootstrap for the three-dimensional O($N$) normal universality class

    hep-th 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    High-truncation eta-minimization bootstrap yields accurate boundary critical amplitudes for the 3d O(N) normal universality class, resolving prior Monte Carlo discrepancies and giving new Ising boundary data.

  10. Eliminating leading and subleading corrections to scaling in the three-dimensional XY universality class

    cond-mat.stat-mech 2025-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Tuning the ratio of two couplings in a cubic-lattice clock model removes the leading and shrinks the subleading corrections to scaling, yielding eta = 0.03816(2) and 1/nu = 1.48872(5).

  11. Bootstrapping the Simplest Deconfined Quantum Critical Point

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Conformal bootstrap bounds for U(1)-charged scalars in 3d are saturated by the CP^2 model's large-N and lattice predictions, suggesting the CP^2 deconfined quantum critical point is a conformal field theory.

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Using mixed-correlator bootstrability with parity and localization input, this paper produces new finite-coupling bounds on 12 OPE coefficients and a new exact BPS structure constant for the Maldacena-Wilson line defect CFT.

    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.
