Bootstrability in Line-Defect CFT with Improved Truncation Methods
V. Niarchos, C. Papageorgakis, P. Richmond +2
We study the conformal bootstrap of 1D CFTs on the straight Maldacena-Wilson line in 4D super-Yang-Mills theory. We introduce an improved truncation scheme with an 'OP…

Gergely Kántor, Vasilis Niarchos, Constantinos Papageorgakis +1
We study numerically the 6D (2,0) superconformal bootstrap using the soft-Actor-Critic (SAC) algorithm as a stochastic optimizer. We focus on the four-point functions of scalar sup…
