Abstract

In this paper, we study the M5-brane configurations in AdS4×Q1,1,1_4 \times Q^{1,1,1} spacetime. We consider the configurations with an AdS2_2 factor embedding into AdS4_4, and manage to construct two solutions, which could be dual to line defects in the boundary gauge theory. Moreover we discuss their BPS nature and find that neither of them is supersymmetric. We show that the M5-brane with a Rt_t or an AdS3_3 factor found before is half-BPS.
