Solving the 3D Ising Model with the Conformal Bootstrap

TL;DR: In this article, the constraints of crossing symmetry and unitarity in general 3D conformal field theories were studied, and it was shown that the 3D Ising model lies at a corner point on the boundary of the allowed parameter space.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Conformal Bootstrap: Theory, Numerical Techniques, and Applications

TL;DR: Conformal field theories have been long known to describe the universal physics of scale invariant critical points as discussed by the authors, and they describe continuous phase transitions in fluids, magnets, and numerous other materials, while at the same time sit at the heart of our modern understanding of quantum field theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spinning conformal correlators

TL;DR: The embedding formalism for conformal field theories is developed, aimed at doing computations with symmetric traceless operators of arbitrary spin, using an indexfree notation where tensors are encoded by polynomials in auxiliary polarization vectors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Solving the 3d Ising Model with the Conformal Bootstrap II. c-Minimization and Precise Critical Exponents

TL;DR: In this article, a conformal bootstrap was used to perform a precision study of the operator spectrum of the critical 3D Ising model, and it was shown that the 3d Ising spectrum minimizes the central charge c in the space of unitary solutions to crossing symmetry.
