Supersymmetric $\mathbb{WCP}^n$, AdS near horizons and orbifolds
Abstract
We construct and study the supersymmetry properties of the weighted projective spaces and . These are topologically with orbifold singularities and as such are higher dimensional analogues of the ``spindle'' or . We use these to construct interesting supersymmetric orbifolds of canonical near horizon geometries of relevance to the AdS/CFT correspondence. Interestingly, for certain tunings of their integer weights, and unlike the spindle, round and are compatible with supersymmetry beyond the realm of gauged supergravity. This allows one to construct interesting supersymmetric solutions in type II supergravity such as AdS and AdS via duality. We also leverage our results to construct a supersymmetric AdS solution containing a topological space with 4 orbifold singularities.
