Abstract

In this work we revisit the problem of studying spin-2 fluctuations around a class of solutions in massive type IIA that is given by a warped AdS3×S2×T4×Iρ\text{AdS}_3 \times \text{S}^2 \times \text{T}^4 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho} and with N=(4,0)\mathcal{N}=(4,0) supersymmetry. We were able to identify a class of fluctuations, which is known as the ``minimal universal class'' that is independent of the background data and saturates the bound on the mass related to the field theory unitarity bound. These operators have conformal dimension Δ=2(+1)\Delta = 2(\ell+1), with \ell being the quantum number of the angular momentum on the S2\text{S}^2. We also computed the normalisation of the 22-point function of stress-energy tensors from the effective 33-dimensional graviton action. We comment on the relation of our results to the related AdS3\text{AdS}_3 and AdS2\text{AdS}_2 solutions in massive type IIA and type IIB theories respectively.
