Description
It is a well-established fact that any conformal field theory with a gap in the twist spectrum must contain families of multi-twist operators, whose spectrum at large spin approaches that of generalized free theory. In presence of a defect, this statement gets enriched by the existence of families of defect operators known as transverse derivative operators. In this talk, we aim to discuss how the lightcone bootstrap can be applied to defect correlation functions with more than two field insertions to extract new dynamical data at large transverse spin that was previously out of reach.
