I. INTRODUCTION Defects in conformal field theories (CFTs) in two space-time dimensions contain signatures of the charac- teristics of the underlying theory. Topological defects are those that preserve the continuity of the stress-energy tensor across the defect [1, 2]. These defects correspond to symmetries which do not necessarily obey the group- like composition law and can even be non-invertible [3- 6]. The investigation of these defects is important for a large number of physical problems ranging from im- purity scattering in condensed matter physics [7, 8] to string theory [9, 10].
