We perform a complete classification of AdS$_2$ solutions of Type II supergravity realising $\mathcal{N}=6$ supersymmetry and OSp$(6|2)$ superconformal symmetry on backgrounds that are foliations of AdS$_2 \times \mathbb{CP}^3$ over a…
We construct $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric AdS$_3$ solutions of type IIB supergravity, dual to twisted compactifications of 4d $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang--Mills on Riemann surfaces. We consider both theories with a regular topological…
We quantize the set of all quarter BPS brane probe solutions in global AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4/K3 found in arxiv:0709.1168 [hep-th]. We show that, generically, these solutions give rise to states in discrete representations of the…
Type IIB superstring theory has AdS_3 x S^3 x M_4 (where the manifold M_4 is either K_3 or T^4) solutions which preserve sixteen supersymmetries. In this paper we consider half-BPS solutions which are locally asymptotic to AdS_3 x S^3 x M_4…
We consider N=2 superconformal theories defined on a 3+1 dimensional hyperplane intersection of two sets of M5 branes. These theories have (tensionless) BPS string solitons. We use a dual supergravity formulation to deduce some of their…
We construct new explicit solutions of general relativity from double analytic continuations of Taub-NUT spacetimes. This generalizes previous studies of 4-dimensional nutty bubbles. One 5-dimensional locally asymptotically AdS solution in…
We investigate the asymptotic dynamics of topological anti-de Sitter supergravity in two dimensions. Starting from the formulation as a BF theory, it is shown that the AdS_2 boundary conditions imply that the asymptotic symmetries form a…
The system of D2 branes localized on or near D6 branes is considered. The world-volume theory on the D2 branes is investigated, using its conjectured relation to the near-horizon geometry. The results are in agreement with known facts and…
We uncover a novel structure in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton gravity: an ${\rm AdS}_2 \times S^2$ solution in string frame, which can be obtained by a near-horizon limit of the extreme GHS black hole with dilaton coupling $\lambda \neq 1$.…
We investigate extremal Reissner-Nordstrom-AdS black holes in four-dimensional N=2 abelian gauged supergravity. We find a new attractor equation which is not reduced to the one in the asymptotically flat spacetime. Focusing on so-called the…
We study classical M5 brane solutions in the probe limit in the $AdS_7 \times S^4$ spacetime geometry with worldvolume 3-form flux. These solutions describe the holography of codimension-4 defects in the 6d boundary dual $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$…
With a view to understanding extended-BMS symmetries in the framework of the $AdS_4/CFT_3$ correspondence, asymptotically AdS geometries are constructed with null impulsive shockwaves involving a discontinuity in superrotation parameters.…
We consider type IIB configurations carrying both NS-NS and R-R electric and magnetic 3-form charges, and whose near horizon geometry contains AdS_3 x S^3. Noting that S^3 is a U(1) bundle over CP^1 \sim S^2, we construct the dual type IIA…
We embed the general solution for non-BPS extremal asymptotically flat static and under-rotating black holes in abelian gauged D=4 N=2 supergravity, in the limit where the scalar potential vanishes but the gauging does not. Using this…
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 $D=5$…
The spacetime $AdS_2 \times S^2$ is well known to arise as the 'near horizon' geometry of the extremal Reissner-Nordstrom solution, and for that reason it has been studied in connection with the AdS/CFT correspondence. Here we consider…
We count the number of regular supersymmetric solutions in supergravity, called superstrata, that represent non-linear completion of linear fluctuations around empty AdS_3 x S^3. These solutions carry the same charges as the D1-D5-P black…
Recently, 1/2-BPS AdS bubble solutions have been obtained by Lin, Lunin and Maldacena, which correspond to Fermi droplets in phase space in the dual CFT picture. They can be thought of as generalisations of 1/2-BPS AdS black hole solutions…
We investigate an AdS2 magnetic brane solution within an abelian truncation of gauged supergravity in AdS4 x orbifolded S7. The solutions flow from AdS4 -> AdS2 x R2 with a magnetic field orthogonal to the R2 directions. We find a class of…
We present a new solvable system, solving the equations of five-dimensional ungauged N=1 supergravity coupled to vector multiplets, that allows for non-extremal solutions and reduces to a known system when restricted to the floating brane…
