This review aims to offer a pedagogical introduction to the analytic conformal bootstrap program via a journey through selected topics. We review analytic methods which include the large spin perturbation theory, Mellin space methods and the Lorentzian inversion formula. These techniques are applied to a variety of topics ranging from large-N theories, to the epsilon expansion and holographic superconformal correlators, and are demonstrated in a large number of explicit examples.

  1. Notes on flat-space limit of holographic defect correlators in position space

    hep-th 2025-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    A position-space flat-space limit formula for holographic defect two-point functions is derived, proven equivalent to the Mellin-space conjecture, and checked against Wilson loops, surface defects, and giant gravitons.

  2. The analytic bootstrap at finite temperature

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Universal dispersion-based formulae for thermal two-point functions of scalars that satisfy bootstrap axioms except clustering at infinite distance.

  3. Spin-resolved double-trace thermal coefficients in holography

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Zero-frequency bulk Heun solutions fix the residual spatial ambiguity left by KMS, yielding spin-resolved holographic double-trace thermal coefficients and canceling complex bulk-cone singularities.

  4. Chiral algebra correlators of the $6$d, $\mathcal{N}=(2,0)$ theory with a defect

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A chiral-algebra bootstrap reproduces the defect two-point correlators of the 6d (2,0) theory using only bulk-channel data and predicts new defect-channel OPE coefficients.
