We construct a continuous one parameter family of $AdS_4\times S^1\times S^5$ S-fold solutions of type IIB string theory which have nontrivial $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ monodromy in the $S^1$ direction. The solutions span a subset of a conformal…
We study RG flows between superconformal field theories living in different spacetime dimensions which exhibit universal properties, independent of the details of the UV and IR theories. In particular, when the UV and IR theories are both…
The M-theory lift of N=1 G_2-invariant RG flow via a combinatoric use of the 4-dimensional RG flow and 11-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell equations was found some time ago. The 11-dimensional metric, a warped product of an asymptotically AdS_4…
We study the 5 dimensional SUGRA AdS duals of N=4, N=2 and N=1 Super-Yang-Mills theories. To sequentially break the N=4 theory mass terms are introduced that correspond, via the duality, to scalar VEVs in the SUGRA. We determine the…
Lagrangian gauge theories with a z=2 Lifshitz scaling provide a family of interacting, asymptotically free five-dimensional field theories. We examine some of their quantum properties, extending previous results to include matter. We…
We consider $2$ coupled Higgs doublets which transform in the usual way under SU(2). By constructing marginal operators which satisfy an operator product expansion based on the SU(2) Lie algebra, we can obtain a rich pattern of…
We study critical points of $F(4)$ gauged supergravity in six dimensions coupled to three vector multiplets. Scalar fields are described by $\mathbb{R}^+\times \frac{SO(4,3)}{SO(4)\times SO(3)}$ coset space, and the gauge group is given by…
We review some aspects of the AdS supergravity description of RG flows. The case of a flow to an IR CFT can be rigorously studied within the framework of supergravity. Here we discuss various central charges of the conformal theory…
This is a review of some recent works which demonstrate how the classical equations of gravity in AdS themselves hold the key to understanding their holographic origin in the form of a strongly coupled large $N$ QFT whose algebra of local…
We discuss four dimensional renormalization group flows which preserve sixteen supersymmetries. In the infra-red, these can be viewed as deformations of the N=4 superconformal fixed points by special, irrelevant operators. It is argued that…
Holographic RG flows are studied in an Einstein-dilaton theory with a general potential. The superpotential formalism is utilized in order to characterize and classify all solutions that are associated to asymptotically AdS space-times.…
A large set of relevant deformations of the ABJM field theory on a stack of M2 branes is captured holographically by D=4 N=8 SO(8)-gauged supergravity, which has accordingly been applied to study renormalisation group (RG) flows of the…
We construct supergravity solutions describing the near horizon limit of D1D5 systems with non-trivial boundary conditions. Upon reduction to five dimensions they define Melvin universes with NS--NS/RR fluxes, that smoothly interpolate…
We discuss RG flows in 5d gauge theories triggered either by VEV's of mesonic or baryonic operators. As a warm-up, we explicitly discuss the counterpart of these flows in 4d gauge theories with $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry by focusing on…
We study six-dimensional $F(4)$ gauged supergravity coupled to four vector multiplets with a non-semisimple $ISO(3)\times U(1)$ gauge group. This gauged supergravity arises from a consistent truncation of type IIB string theory on…
With the purpose of holographically describing flows from a large family of four dimensional ${\cal N}=1$ and ${\cal N}=2$ conformal field theories, we discuss truncations of seven dimensional supergravity to five dimensions. We write…
We study various types of holographic solutions from five-dimensional $N=4$ gauged supergravity coupled to three vector multiplets with $SO(2)\times ISO(3)$ gauge group. This gauged supergravity can be obtained from the maximal gauged…
As shown by Freedman, Gubser, Pilch and Warner, the RG flow in ${\cal N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory broken to an ${\cal N}=1$ theory by the addition of a mass term can be described in terms of a supersymmetric domain wall solution in…
We construct $AdS_3\times Y_7$ solutions of type IIB supergravity, where $Y_7$ is a smooth $S^5$ bundle over a spindle $\Sigma(n_N,n_S)$, which are dual to $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ SCFTs in $d=2$. The solutions are constructed using the $D=5$…
We explore the RG flow between neighboring minimal CFT models with $W_3$ symmetry. After computing several classes of OPE structure constants we were able to find the matrices of anomalous dimensions for three classes of RG invariant sets…
