Abstract

We consider AdS2AdS_2 solutions of M-theory which are obtained by twisted compactifications of M2-branes on a complex curve. They are of a generalized class, in the sense that the non-abelian part of the connection for the holomorphic bundle over the supersymmetric cycle is nontrivial. They are solutions of U(1)4U(1)^4 gauged supergravity in D=4D=4, with magnetic flux over the curve, and then uplifted to D=11D=11. We discuss the behavior of conformal fixed points as a function of the non-abelian connection. We also describe how they fit into the general description of wrapped M2-brane AdS2AdS_2 solutions and their higher-order generalizations, by showing that they satisfy the master equation for the eight-dimensional K\"ahler base space.
