Using mixed-correlator bootstrability with parity and localization input, this paper produces new finite-coupling bounds on 12 OPE coefficients and a new exact BPS structure constant for the Maldacena-Wilson line defect CFT.

abstract
We continue our study of multipoint correlators of scalar fields on the $1d$ defect CFT generated by inserting operators along the Maldacena-Wilson line in $\mathcal{N} = 4$ SYM. We present a weak-coupling recursion relation that captures correlators at next-to-leading order involving an arbitrary number of the elementary scalar fields $\phi^i$ and $\phi^6$, the latter being unprotected. We can then build correlators of composite operators by pinching the scalar fields together. As a demonstration of our method, we give explicit results for correlators containing up to six points. We also expand some selected correlators using recently obtained conformal blocks in the comb and snowflake channel, and check that the extracted low-lying CFT data is consistent with explicit computations.

Using mixed-correlator bootstrability with parity and localization input, this paper produces new finite-coupling bounds on 12 OPE coefficients and a new exact BPS structure constant for the Maldacena-Wilson line defect CFT.
