We provide evidence for the existence of non-trivial unitary conformal boundary conditions for a three-dimensional free scalar field, which can be obtained via a coupling to the m'th unitary diagonal minimal model. For large m we can demonstrate the existence of the fixed point perturbatively, and for smaller values we use the numerical conformal bootstrap to obtain a sharp kink that smoothly matches onto the perturbative predictions. The wider numerical analysis also yields universal bounds for the spectrum of any other boundary condition for the free scalar field. A second kink in these bounds hints at a second class of non-standard boundary conditions, as yet unidentified.

  1. Coupled minimal models revisited II: Constraints from permutation symmetry

    hep-th 2024-12 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    For coupled large-m minimal models with N=5,6,7, every permutation-charged current below spin 10 acquires an anomalous dimension, so the IR fixed points show no extended chiral algebra in that range.
