Abstract

We study spin-2 fluctuations around an infinite family of warped backgrounds of the form AdS2×S2×T4×S1×Iρ\text{AdS}_2 \times \text{S}^2 \times \text{T}^4 \times \text{S}^1 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho} in the type IIB theory, which possesses N=4\mathcal{N}=4 supersymmetry. We find that there exists a special set of solutions which is independent of the background data; the minimal universal class. This particular class of solutions corresponds to operators with scaling dimension Δ=+1\Delta = \ell + 1, with \ell being the quantum number of the angular-momentum on the S2\text{S}^2. Using the mode solutions of these spin-2 states, we compute the central charge of the dual field theories. We comment on the relation of our results to the seed AdS3×S2×T4×Iρ\text{AdS}_3 \times \text{S}^2 \times \text{T}^4 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho} backgrounds.
