Abstract

We construct new continuous families of AdS3×S3×T4{\rm AdS}_3\times S^3\times {\rm T}^4 and AdS3×S3×S3×S1{\rm AdS}_3\times S^3\times S^3\times S^1 solutions in heterotic and type II supergravities. These families are found in three-dimensional consistent truncations and controlled by 17 parameters, which include TsT β\beta deformations and encompass several supersymmetric sub-families. The different uplifts are constructed in a unified fashion by means of Exceptional Field Theory (ExFT). This allows the computation of the Kaluza-Klein spectra around the deformations, to test the stability of the solutions, and to interpret them holographically and as worldsheet models. To achieve this, we describe how the half-maximal SO(8,8){\rm SO}(8,8) ExFT can be embedded into E8(8){\rm E}_{8(8)} ExFT.
