Improving CFT Operators Using Machine Learning (opens in new tab)

Finite-size effects limit the accuracy with which conformal data can be extracted from lattice simulations of critical systems. While action improvement suppresses some corrections to scaling, it does not address operator-dependent effects arising from imperfect lattice representations of continuum conformal fields. In this work, we propose a data-driven method for improving lattice operators themselves, constructing estimators with enhanced ove...
