With use of a 6-form field strength of ten-dimensional type IIA supergravity over AdS_4 x CP^3, when S^7/Z_k is considered as a S^1 Hopf fibration on CP^3, we earn a fully localized solution in the bulk of Euclideanized AdS_4. Indeed, this…

We construct new families of supersymmetric AdS$_2\times\mathbb{M}_4$ solutions of $D=6$ gauged supergravity and AdS$_3\times\mathbb{M}_4$ solutions of $D=7$ gauged supergravity, where $\mathbb{M}_4$ are four-dimensional toric orbifolds…
We study four-dimensional $N=4$ gauged supergravity coupled to six vector multiplets with semisimple gauge groups $SO(4)\times SO(4)$, $SO(3,1)\times SO(3,1)$ and $SO(4)\times SO(3,1)$. All of these gauge groups are dyonically embedded in…
We derive a new class of supersymmetric D3/D7 brane configurations, which allow to holographically describe N=4 SYM coupled to massive N=2 flavor degrees of freedom on spaces of constant curvature. We systematically solve the…
At the level of the bosonic fields, we construct consistent Kaluza--Klein reductions of D=11 supergravity on $\Sigma_3\times S^4$, where $\Sigma_3=H^3/\Gamma,S^3/\Gamma$ or $R^3/\Gamma$ where $\Gamma$ is a discrete group of isometries. The…
Several aspects concerning the physics of D-branes in Type II flux compactifications preserving minimal N=1 supersymmetry in four dimensions are considered. It is shown how these vacua are completely characterized in terms of properly…
We introduce an ansatz which allows us to solve the supersymmetry equations for warped N=1 AdS4 type II supergravity compactifications of general SU(3)xSU(3) structure. As a byproduct we obtain a set of necessary conditions which every…
A new class of exact supersymmetric solutions is derived within minimal $d = 6$ $F(4)$ gauged supergravity. These flows are all characterized by a non-trivial radial profile for the 2-form gauge potential included into the supergravity…
Gaugino condensation on D-branes wrapping internal cycles gives a mechanism to stabilize the associated moduli. According to the effective field theory, this gives rise, when combined with fluxes, to supersymmetric AdS$_4$ solutions. In…
We construct new families of supersymmetric AdS$_3$ solutions in both massive and massless Type IIA supergravity via deformations to known backgrounds preserving $\mathcal{N} = (4,0)$ and $\mathcal{N} = (6,0)$ supersymmetry. These…
AdS$_7$ solutions of massive type IIA have been classified, and are dual to a large class of six-dimensional $(1,0)$ SCFT's whose tensor branch deformations are described by linear quivers of SU groups. Quivers and AdS vacua depend solely…

In this paper we obtain supersymmetric brane-like configurations in the vacuum of N=4 gauged $SU(2)\times SU(2)$ supergravity theory in four spacetime dimensions. Almost all of these vacuum solutions preserve either half or one quarter of…
We classify the non-supersymmetric, and perturbatively stable within $D=4$, AdS vacua of maximal $D=4$ supergravity with a dyonic ISO(7) gauging in a large sector of the supergravity. Seven such vacua are established within this sector, all…
This article is devoted to a world sheet analysis of A-type D-branes in N=(2,2) supersymmetric non-linear sigma models. In addition to the familiar Lagrangian submanifolds with flat connection we reproduce the rank one A-branes of Kapustin…
Type IIB S-folds of the form $\,\textrm{AdS}_{4} \times \textrm{S}^1 \times \textrm{S}^5\,$ are conjectured to correspond to new strongly coupled three-dimensional CFT's on a localised interface of $\,\textrm{SYM}_{4}\,$. In this work we…
