Zuckerman Postdoctoral Scholar, Shai Chester, and colleagues develop new tools for isolating CFTs using the numerical bootstrap. A “cutting surface” algorithm for scanning OPE coefficients makes it possible to find islands in high-dimensional spaces. Together with recent progress in large-scale semi definite programming, this enables bootstrap studies of much larger systems of correlation functions than was previously practical.
