Description
I will present recent advances in the understanding conserved defects in 2d CFTs. Both topological and non-topological defect may give rise to conserved quantities in deformed 2d CFT. I will characterize a class of translational invariant defects from the UV to the IR of an RG flows triggered by relevant perturbation of 2d CFTs. On the way I will discuss various properties of these flows in Minimal models of the WN algebra.
