Abstract

Employing the method applied to construct AdS5AdS_5 solutions from M5-branes recently by Bah, Bonetti, Minasian and Nardoni, we construct supersymmetric AdS3AdS_3 solutions from D3-branes and M5-branes wrapped on a disc with non-trivial holonomies at the boundary. In five-dimensional U(1)3U(1)^3-gauged N=2\mathcal{N}=2 supergravity, we find N=(2,2)\mathcal{N}=(2,2) and N=(4,4)\mathcal{N}=(4,4) supersymmetric AdS3AdS_3 solutions. We uplift the solutions to type IIB supergravity and obtain D3-branes wrapped on a topological disc. We also uplift the solutions to eleven-dimensional supergravity and obtain M5-branes wrapped on a product of topological disc and Riemann surface. For the N=(2,2)\mathcal{N}=(2,2) solution, holographic central charges are finite and well-defined. On the other hand, we could not find N=(4,4)\mathcal{N}=(4,4) solution with finite holographic central charge. Finally, we show that the topological disc we obtain is, in fact, identical to a special case of the multi-charge spindle solution.
