Taming defects in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 super-Yang-Mills

Abstract We study correlation functions involving extended defect operators in the four- dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 super-Yang-Mills (SYM). The main tool is supersymmetric localization with respect to the supercharge 𝒬 introduced in [1] which computes observables in the 𝒬- cohomology. We cl...
