Abstract: 

Locality of bulk operators in AdS imposes stringent constraints on their description in terms of boundary CFT operators. These constraints are characterised by sum rules on the bulk-to-boundary expansion coefficients. I will present an analytic bootstrap method that produces "bespoke" functionals, which explicitly bootstrap a large family of exact, interacting solutions of this locality bootstrap problem.
