In recent years, the conformal bootstrap has become one of the most promising frameworks to study conformal field theory, both at the perturbative and non-perturbative level. In this thesis, we consider two extensions of the conformal bootstrap: the addition of supersymmetry, and the addition of conformal defects. Both of these extensions have rich physical applications, that we discuss in the two main parts of the thesis. In the first part, we present a pedagogical introduction to conformal field theory, the bootstrap program, supersymmetry and conformal defects. In the second part, we discuss several applications of these general methods. 000478518 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-611$$a611 - Fundamental Particles and Forces (POF4-611)$$cPOF4-611$$fPOF IV$$x0 000478518 536__ $$0G:(DE-DFG)EmmyNoether$$aEmmy Noether - Emmy Noether Nachwuchsgruppe (EmmyNoether)$$cEmmyNoether$$x1 000478518 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)2015_IFV-VH-GS-500$$aPHGS, VH-GS-500 - PIER Helmholtz Graduate School (2015_IFV-VH-GS-500)$$c2015_IFV-VH-GS-500$$x2 000478518 693__ $$0EXP:(DE-MLZ)NOSPEC-20140101$$5EXP:(DE-MLZ)NOSPEC-20140101$$eNo specific instrument$$x0 000478518 7001_ $$0P:(DE-H253)PIP1031480$$aLiendo Cordova, Pedro$$b1$$eThesis advisor 000478518 7001_ $$0P:(DE-H253)PIP1021474$$aArutyunov, Gleb$$b2$$eThesis advisor 000478518 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/478518/files/AleixGimenezGrau-TopicsInTheSuperconformalAndDefectConformalBootstrap.pdf$$yOpenAccess 000478518 8564_ $$uhttps://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/478518/files/AleixGimenezGrau-TopicsInTheSuperconformalAndDefectConformalBootstrap.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa$$yOpenAccess 000478518 909CO $$ooai:bib-pubdb1.desy.de:478518$$pdnbdelivery$$pdriver$$pVDB$$popen_access$$popenaire 000478518 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)2008985-5$$6P:(DE-H253)PIP1086631$$aDeutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron$$b0$$kDESY 000478518 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)2008985-5$$6P:(DE-H253)PIP1031480$$aDeutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron$$b1$$kDESY 000478518 9101_ $$0I:(DE-HGF)0$$6P:(DE-H253)PIP1021474$$aExternal Institute$$b2$$kExtern 000478518 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-611$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF4-610$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF4-600$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF4$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bForschungsbereich Materie$$lMatter and the Universe$$vFundamental Particles and Forces$$x0 000478518 9141_ $$y2022 000478518 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0510$$2StatID$$aOpenAccess 000478518 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBY4$$2HGFVOC$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY 4.0 000478518 920__ $$lyes 000478518 9201_ $$0I:(DE-H253)T-20120731$$kT$$lTheorie-Gruppe$$x0 000478518 980__ $$aphd 000478518 980__ $$aVDB 000478518 980__ $$aI:(DE-H253)T-20120731 000478518 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED 000478518 9801_ $$aFullTexts
