Surface defects in $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills: exact results and holographic bootstrap

Lorenzo Bianchi, Davide Bonomi, Maddalena Ferragatta +1

We study two-point functions of chiral primary operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills in the presence of a half-BPS surface defect. Such a defect preserves only the diagonal…
