Bootstrapping the Three-Dimensional Supersymmetric Ising Model

arXiv:1502.04124 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.051601

Abstract

We implement the conformal bootstrap program for three-dimensional CFTs with supersymmetry and find universal constraints on the spectrum of operator dimensions in these theories. By studying the bounds on the dimension of the first scalar appearing in the OPE of a chiral and an anti-chiral primary, we find a kink at the expected location of the critical three-dimensional Wess-Zumino model, which can be thought of as a supersymmetric analog of the critical Ising model. Focusing on this kink, we determine, to high accuracy, the low-lying spectrum of operator dimensions of the theory.
