Conformal field theory finds applications across diverse fields, from statistical systems at criticality to quantum gravity through the AdS/CFT correspondence. These theories are subject to strong constraints, enabling a systematic non-perturbative analysis. Conformal defects provide a controlled means of breaking the symmetry, introducing new physical phenomena while preserving crucial benefits of the underlying conformal symmetry. Two distinct classes of models are studied. First, we focus on the supersymmetric Wilson line in N = 4 Super Yang–Mills, which serves as an ideal testing ground for the development of innovative techniques such as the analytic conformal bootstrap. The second class consists of magnetic lines in Yukawa models, which have fascinating applications in 3d condensed-matter systems. These systems have the potential to emulate phenomena observed in the Standard Model in a low-energy setting. 0aElementary particles (Physics).968885 0aQuantum field theory.968886 0aCondensed matter.966773 0aGravitation.14aElementary Particles, Quantum Field Theory.96888724aCondensed Matter Physics.97187224aClassical and Quantum Gravity.9694092 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303171347708iPrinted edition:z978303171349108iPrinted edition:z9783031713507 0aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,x2190-506196637040uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-71348-4  aZDB-2-PHA  aZDB-2-SXP  c66310d66310
