SUMMARY:Taming huge defects in N=4 SYM - Christoph Uhlemann (Vrije Univers
 iteit Brussel)

DESCRIPTION:N=4 SYM\, sometimes described as the `harmonic oscillator' of 
 4d QFTs\, provides a natural setting to explore the physics of defects in 
 a relatively controlled environment. In this talk we will focus on codimen
 sion-1 features (boundaries\, defects\, interfaces) in a large-N regime wh
 ere they are not small deformations of the ambient theory. We will discuss
  connections between field theory\, holography and the matrix models emerg
 ing from supersymmetric localization\, and recent results for correlation 
 functions.
