abstract
The locally BPS Wilson loop and the pure gauge Wilson loop map under AdS/CFT duality to string world-sheet boundaries with standard and alternate quantizations of the world-sheet fields. This implies an RG flow between the two operators, which we verify at weak coupling. Many additional loop operators exist at strong coupling, with a rich pattern of RG flows.

Crosscap defects are introduced in CFTs via Z2 quotients, with crossing equations derived and CFT data computed in the O(N) model at Gaussian and Wilson-Fisher points showing absent displacement and tilt operators for generic p.
Heavy-quark momentum transfer beyond leading logarithm in weak-coupling plasmas is non-Gaussian with asymmetric exponential tails, matching the structure seen in strongly coupled holographic plasmas.
