DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Philine Van Vilet\n\nConformal defects break part of
  the symmetry of a bulk CFT. The brokenWard identities lead to very genera
 l sum rules on the defect CFT data aswell as on the data of bulk operators
  in the presence of a defect. Wecall these sum rules "defect soft theorems
 "\, and they hold generally fordefects which break conformal symmetry\, fl
 avor symmetry\, orsupersymmetry. In this talk I will focus on line defects
  for which wecan rewrite the constraints in dispersive sum rule form\, and
  show howthe defect soft theorems impose constraints on the defect spectru
 m andOPE coefficients. I will also show how to combine them with thenumeri
 cal conformal bootstrap for defects\, a nonperturbative andrigorous method
  to obtain CFT data. I will highlight two examples: 1) aflux tube in pure 
 YM in AdS_3\, where the bootstrap can be used to testthe validity of a smo
 oth interpolation between perturbative models atsmall and large AdS radius
 . 2) the ½-BPS Maldacena-Wilson line in N=4SYM\, where an interplay with 
 integrability and supersymmetriclocalization provides a unique opportunity
  to obtain exact results.\n\nhttps://indico.uu.se/event/2229/
