Abstract

We study supersymmetric AdS5×ΣAdS_5\times \Sigma solutions, for Σ\Sigma being a topological disk with non-trivial U(1)U(1) holonomy at the boundary or "half-spindle", in seven-dimensional N=2N=2 gauged supergravity coupled to three vector multiplets. We consider compact and non-compact gauge groups, SO(4p,p)SO(4-p,p), for p=0,1,2p=0,1,2, and find a number of AdS5×ΣAdS_5\times \Sigma solutions with SO(2)×SO(2)SO(2)\times SO(2) and SO(2)diagSO(2)_{\text{diag}} residual symmetry from SO(4)SO(4) and SO(2,2)SO(2,2) gauge groups. We also find an SO(2)RSO(3)RSU(2)RSO(2)_R\subset SO(3)_R\sim SU(2)_R symmetric solution which can be regarded as a solution of pure N=2N=2 gauged supergravity with SO(3)RSO(3)_R gauge group and all the fields from vector multiplets vanishing. The solutions preserve 12\frac{1}{2} of the original N=2N=2 supersymmetry and could be interpreted as supergravity duals of N=1N=1 superconformal field theories in four dimensions. In particular, some of these solutions can be embedded in ten or eleven dimensions in which a description in terms of five-branes wrapped on a topological disk can be given.
