We use the $K$ special conformal generator in the Fuzzy sphere setup of the Ising CFT to determine primary states. For $\Delta \lesssim 8$, we recover the known primaries and find several new ones, including in the parity-odd sector. We…

The fuzzy-sphere regularisation is a powerful tool to study conformal field theories (CFT) in three spacetime dimensions. In this paper, we extend its scope to CFTs with local fermionic operators. We realise the free-Majorana-fermion CFT on…

In conformal field theory (CFT), the four-point correlator is a fundamental object that encodes CFT properties, constrains CFT structures, and connects to the gravitational scattering amplitude in holography theory. However, the four-point…
