We study giant graviton probes in the framework of the three--parameter deformation of the AdS_5 x S^5 background. We examine both the case when the brane expands in the deformed part of the geometry and the case when it blows up into AdS.…
We find a family of complete non-linear Kaluza-Kein reduction ansatze from type IIB supergravity to Romans' 6D $F(4)$ gauged supergravity in the bosonic sector. The reduction is over a sphere $S^2$ and a Riemann surface $\Sigma$, and…
We study the integrable asymmetric $\lambda$-deformations of the $SO(n+1)/SO(n)$ coset models, following the prescription proposed in \cite{AsyLambda}. We construct all corresponding deformed geometries in an inductive way. Remarkably we…
In this paper we consider the non-Abelian T-dual geometry of the type $IIB$ supergravity theory on $AdS_3\times S^3\times T^4$ background along a convenient $SU(2)$ subgroup of the $SO(4)$ R-symmetry. We examine various null geodesics of…
We find explicit supergravity solutions which describe branes in the AdS_3 x S^3 background. These solutions preserve 8 of the 16 supersymmetries of this background, and are consistent with kappa-symmetry. These represent new 1/2-BPS states…
We construct solutions of type IIB supergravity with non-trivial Ramond-Ramond 5-form in ten dimensions by replacing the transverse flat space of pp-wave backgrounds with exact $N=(4,4)$ $c=4$ superconformal field theory blocks. These…
We consider ${\cal N}=(n,0)$ supersymmetric AdS$_3$ vacua of type II supergravity realising the superconformal algebra $\mathfrak{osp}(n|2)$ for $n>4$. For the cases $n=6$ and $n=5$, one can realise these algebras on backgrounds that…
We show that for every Sasaki-Einstein manifold, $M_5$, the AdS$_5\times M_5$ background of type IIB supergravity admits two universal deformations leading to supersymmetric AdS$_4$ solutions. One class of solutions describes an AdS$_4$…
We construct a two-parameter deformation of the Metsaev-Tseytlin action for supercosets with isometry group of the form G x G. The resulting action is classically integrable and is Poisson-Lie symmetric suggesting that the symmetry of the…
We provide a string theory realisation of a two-parameter family of Type IIB supergravity solutions of the form ${\rm WAdS}_3 \times {\rm WS}^3 \times M_4$, as near-horizon geometries of supersymmetric backgrounds involving D1-D5 branes,…
A formulation recently proposed [arXiv:1506.07706] as an alternative to the usual coset PSU(2,2|4)/USp(2,2)USp(4) for the superspace geometry of the Type IIB superstring on an AdS5xS5 background is shown to be a particular parametrization…
We present a maximally supersymmetric IIB string background. The geometry is that of a conformally flat lorentzian symmetric space G/K with solvable G, with a homogeneous five-form flux. We give the explicit supergravity solution, compute…
We obtain a family of type IIB superstring backgrounds involving Ramond-Ramond fields in ten dimensions starting from a heterotic string background with vanishing gauge fields. To this end the global $SL(2,R)$ symmetry of the type IIB…
We study a class of solutions of IIB Supergravity which are asymptotically AdS_5 x Y^{p,q}. They have an R x SO(4) x SU(2) x U(1) isometry and preserve half of the 8 supercharges of the background geometry. They are described by a set of…
We build string backgrounds for Yang-Baxter deformations of the $AdS_4\times\mathbb{CP}^3$ superstring generated by $r$-matrices satisfying the classical Yang-Baxter equation. We obtain the metric and the NS-NS two-form of the gravity dual…
In M-theory, the only AdS_7 supersymmetric solutions are AdS_7 x S^4 and its orbifolds. In this paper, we find and classify new supersymmetric solutions of the type AdS_7 x M_3 in type II supergravity. While in IIB none exist, in IIA with…
In the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence the general form of a three-form flux perturbation to the AdS_5 x S^5 solution in the type IIB supergravity which preserves N=2 supersymmetry is obtained. The arbitrary holomorphic function…
We investigate classical integrability on two recently discovered classes of backgrounds in massive IIA supergravity. These vacua are of the form AdS$_3\times\,$S$^2\times\mathbb{R}\times\,$CY$_2$, they preserve small $\mathcal{N}=(0,4)$…
We show that the background field method applied to supergravity in adS space-time provides the path integral for the theory in the bulk with conformal symmetry associated with the isometry of the adS space. This in turn allows to establish…
