contents Conformal symmetry is expected to be realized in many equilibrium statistical mechanical systems at criticality. Although this is certainly true in two-dimensional systems, the three-dimensional case is subtler, and only a few proofs exist, only so in very specific cases. In this work, we give two proofs for the large $N$ limit of the $O(N)$ universality class within the non-perturbative renormalization group framework: one functional, and one vertex-by-vertex in Fourier space. While doing so, we unveil how the theory is structured in order for conformal symmetry to be realized. As a consequence, we shed light on what to expect, on rather general grounds, for a theory to be conformally invariant.
