Improving 3d Ising OPE coefficients with fuzzy sphere conformal generators

Giulia Fardelli, Andrew Liam Fitzpatrick, Emanuel Katz

We use the

K K
special conformal generator in the Fuzzy sphere setup of the Ising CFT to determine primary states. For
\Delta ≲ 8 Δ ≲ 8
, we recover the known primaries and find several new ones, including in the parity-odd sector. We then use these primaries to compute OPE coefficients. We find that using primaries constructed from special-
K K
allows for better extrapolation of OPE coefficients to the CFT limit, because of the existence of an
O(1) O ( 1 )
gap between primaries and descendants in the spectrum of eigenvalues of
|K|^2 | K | 2
which protects the primaries from strongly mixing with descendants. We compare the CFT data we obtain with the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis.
