Bootstrapping the half-BPS line defect

Abstract We use modern bootstrap techniques to study half-BPS line defects in 4d N = 4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ superconformal theories. Specifically, we consider the 1d CFT with OSP(4∗|4) superconformal symmetry living on such a defect. Our analysis is general and based only on symmetries, it includes h...
