Deconstructing defects

Abstract We use the exact-deconstruction prescription to lift various squashed-S 3 partition functions with supersymmetric-defect insertions to four-dimensional superconformal indices. Starting from three-dimensional circular-quiver theories with vortex-loop-operator insertions, we recover the index...
