| Abstract: |
We present a full classification of UV complete QFTs that RG flow to the 2D Ising CFT by solving the bootstrap equations for massless right--left S-matrices. For the Ising model with E8 spectrum, we find exactly four completions, arising from higher-TTbar-type deformations, including a previously unknown ``golden flow'' whose UV fixed point is a diagonal su(2) coset CFT (c=25/14) along \Delta_{rel}=2/7. A universal Fibonacci/ E8 structure governs the R--L adjacency matrices and the Y-system periods, so that the E8 symmetry persists across all RG scales.
