Abstract
We consider a topologically twisted maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on a four-manifold of the form . 't Hooft disorder operators localized in the boundary component at finite distance of are relevant for the study of knot theory on the three-manifold , and have recently been constructed for a gauge group of rank one. We extend this construction to an arbitrary gauge group . For certain values of the magnetic charge of the 't Hooft operator, the solutions are obtained by embedding the rank one solutions in and can be given in closed form.
