Abstract

We show that there is a family of two-dimensional (0,2)(0,2) SCFTs associated with twisted compactifications of the four-dimensional N=1\mathcal{N}=1 Leigh-Strassler fixed point on a closed hyperbolic Riemann surface. We calculate the central charges for this class of theories using anomalies and cc-extremization. In a suitable truncation of the five-dimensional maximal supergravity, we construct supersymmetric AdS3AdS_3 solutions that are holographic duals of those two-dimensional (0,2)(0,2) SCFTs. We also exhibit supersymmetric domain wall solutions that are holographically dual to the RG flows between the four-dimensional and two-dimensional theories.
