We find M-theory solutions that are holographic duals of flows of the maximally supersymmetric N=8 scalar-fermion theory in (2+1) dimensions. In particular, we construct the M-theory solution dual to a flow in which a single chiral…

We study the conditions to have supersymmetric D-branes on general {\cal N}=1 backgrounds with Ramond-Ramond fluxes. These conditions can be written in terms of the two pure spinors associated to the SU(3)\times SU(3) structure on T_M\oplus…

Flux compactification of IIB string theory associates special points in Calabi-Yau moduli space to choices of (pairs of) integral three-form fluxes. In this paper, we propose that supersymmetric flux vacua are modular. That is, to a…
