't Hooft loops in N=4 super-Yang-Mills

arXiv:2412.01972

Abstract

We set up a perturbative framework for the 't Hooft line in the N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory, and apply it to correlators thereof with Wilson loops and local operators. Using this formalism we obtain a number of perturbative and non-perturbative results that directly connect to localization, holography and integrability.
