abstract:

Fuzzy sphere regularization has proven to be a useful tool for deriving CFT data in a number of theories, most notably the 3d Ising model. Previous studies of these fuzzy sphere models relied explicitly upon matching with data known from other methods such as the conformal bootstrap, and were thus limited to already well-studied theories. Following two recent articles 2409.02998 and 2409.08257 I will detail how it is possible to explore the emergence of conformality within the constraints of the fuzzy sphere models themselves by explicitly realizing the generators of the conformal algebra as fuzzy sphere operators, and discuss their results for fuzzy sphere Ising model.
