Description
A ’t Hooft loop is the simplest disorder operator in the N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory exactly S-dual to a Wilson loop. Insertion of a ’t Hooft loop defines a defect CFT which is expected to be integrable. I will describe how to compute 1pt functions in this setup by combining S-duality, localization and holography for protected operators and integrability for unprotected.
