DESCRIPTION:Andreas Stergiou (CERN)\nThe numerical conformal bootstrap pr
 ogram has produced a wide range of impressive results concerning conformal
  field theories in various spacetime dimensions. In this talk I will focus
  on an application of this program to four-dimensional conformal theories 
 with N=1 supersymmetry. In such theories a kink was found some time ago in
  the upper bound on the dimension of the first real scalar operator that a
 ppears in the operator product expansion of a chiral operator with its con
 jugate. Kinks signify isolated solutions to crossing equations\, and are t
 ypically associated with specific conformal field theories. The nature of 
 the putative theory at the N=1 kink remains mysterious. In this talk I wil
 l present numerical results concerning 4D N=1 theories using mixed correla
 tion functions\, and provide ample evidence that a special conformal field
  theory lives at the kink.
