Abstract
We employ a non-compact gauging of four-dimensional maximal supergravity to construct a two-parameter family of AdS J-fold solutions preserving supersymmetry. All solutions preserve global symmetry and in special limits we recover the previously known invariant and invariant J-fold solutions. This family of AdS backgrounds can be uplifted to type IIB string theory and is holographically dual to the conformal manifold of a class of three-dimensional -fold SCFTs obtained from the theory of Gaiotto-Witten. We find the spectrum of supergravity excitations of the AdS solutions and use it to study how the operator spectrum of the three-dimensional SCFT depends on the exactly marginal couplings.
