We report on non-perturbative bounds for structure constants on N=4 SYM. Such bounds are obtained by applying the conformal bootstrap recently extended to superconformal theories. We compare our results with interpolating functions suitably restricted by the S-duality of the theory. Within numerical errors, these interpolations support the conjecture that the bounds found in this paper are saturated at duality invariant values of the coupling. This extends recent conjectures for the anomalous dimension of leading twist operators.

We show that the structure constants of W-algebras can be grouped according to the lowest (bosonic) spin(s) of the algebra. The structure constants in each group are described by a unique formula, depending on a functional parameter h(c) that is char acteristic for each algebra. As examples we give the structure constants C_{33}^4 and C_{44}^4 for the algebras of type W(2,3,4,...) (that include the WA_{n-1}-algebras) and the structure constant C_{44}^4 for the algebras of type W(2,4,...), especially for all the algebras WD_n, WB(0,n), WB_n and WC_n. It also includes the bosonic projection of the super-Virasoro algebra and a yet unexplained algebra of type W(2,4,6) found previously.
Current numerical conformal bootstrap techniques carve out islands in theory space by repeatedly checking whether points are allowed or excluded. We propose a new method for searching theory space that replaces the binary information allowed/excluded with a continuous navigator function that is negative in the allowed region and positive in the excluded region. Such a navigator function allows one to efficiently explore high-dimensional parameter spaces and smoothly sail towards any islands they may contain. The specific functions we introduce have several attractive features: they are everywhere well-defined, can be computed with standard methods, and evaluation of their gradient is immediate due to an SDP gradient formula that we provide. The latter property allows for the use of efficient quasi-Newton optimization methods, which we illustrate by navigating towards the 3d Ising island.

For expansions in one-dimensional conformal blocks, we provide a rigorous link between the asymptotics of the spectral density of exchanged primaries and the leading singularity in the crossed channel. Our result has a direct application to systems o f SL(2,R)-invariant correlators (also known as 1d CFTs). It also puts on solid ground a part of the lightcone bootstrap analysis of the spectrum of operators of high spin and bounded twist in CFTs in d>2. In addition, a similar argument controls the spectral density asymptotics in large N gauge theories.
We derive and spell out the structure constants of the $mathbb{Z}_2$-graded algebra $mathfrak{shs}[lambda],$ by using deformed-oscillators techniques in $Aq(2; u),$, the universal enveloping algebra of the Wigner-deformed Heisenberg algebra in 2 dime nsions. The use of Weyl ordering of the deformed oscillators is made throughout the paper, via the symbols of the operators and the corresponding associative, non-commutative star product. The deformed oscillator construction was used by Vasiliev in order to construct the higher spin algebras in three spacetime dimensions. We derive an expression for the structure constants of $mathfrak{shs}[lambda],$ and show that they must obey a recurrence relation as a consequence of the associativity of the star product. We solve this condition and show that the $mathfrak{hs}[lambda],$ structure constants are given by those postulated by Pope, Romans and Shen for the Lone Star product.

We present a systematic method to expand in components four dimensional superconformal multiplets. The results cover all possible $mathcal{N} = 1$ multiplets and some cases of interest for $mathcal{N} = 2$. As an application of the formalism we prove that certain $mathcal{N} = 2$ spinning chiral operators (also known as exotic chiral primaries) do not admit a consistent three-point function with the stress tensor and therefore cannot be present in any local SCFT. This extends a previous proof in the literature which only applies to certain classes of theories. To each superdescendant we associate a superconformally covariant differential operator, which can then be applied to any correlator in superspace. In the case of three-point functions, we introduce a convenient representation of the differential operators that considerably simplifies their action. As a consequence it is possible to efficiently obtain the linear relations between the OPE coefficients of the operators in the same superconformal multiplet and in turn streamline the computation of superconformal blocks. We also introduce a Mathematica package to work with four dimensional superspace.
