TLDR
In this article, the authors studied correlation functions of local operator insertions on the 1/2-BPS Wilson line in N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory, where the correlation functions are constrained by the 1d superconformal symmetry preserved by the Wilson line and define a defect CFT 1 living on the line.About:

Defects in conformal field theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the prototypical example is provided by boundaries and interfaces, whose conformal data have already been characterized in general dimensions in [1, 2] and [3].

Defects in conformal field theory
TL;DR: In this article, the authors adapt the embedding formalism to the study of correlation functions of symmetric traceless tensors in the presence of the defect, and find unitarity bounds for the latter.

TL;DR: In this paper, a general class of functionals providing an analytic handle on the conformal bootstrap equations in one dimension is studied, corresponding to theories saturating conformal bounds, in two regimes.

Chaotic Strings in AdS/CFT.
TL;DR: The result shows that, at least in certain cases, maximal chaos can be attained in the probe sector without the explicit need of gravitational degrees of freedom.

Macroscopic strings as heavy quarks: Large- N gauge theory and anti-de Sitter supergravity
Soo-Jong Rey,Jung-Tay Yee +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a macroscopic string-anti-quark pair configuration is proposed as a physical realization of a heavy quark Wilson loop, and the potentials of the BPS string are derived from the strong 't Hooft coupling limit.

Conformal symmetry and its breaking in two dimensional Nearly Anti-de-Sitter space
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-dimensional dilaton gravity system was studied and the symmetry breaking was studied in terms of a Schwarzian derivative effective action for a reparametrization.
