New holographic prescription for the model of 3d higher-spin gravity coupled to real matter fields $B_{\mu\nu}$ and $C$, which was introduced in ArXiv:1304.7941[hep-th], is formulated. By using a local symmetry, two of the components of…

We study the proposed duality between the 5-dimensional supergravity/superstring on $AdS_3\times S^2$ and the 2-dimensional N=(0,4) SCFT defined on the boundary of AdS-space. We construct explicitly the N=(0,4) SCFT by imposing the `quiver…

We present a large class of new backgrounds that are solutions of type II supergravity with a warped AdS${}_4$ factor, non-trivial axion-dilaton, B-field, and three- and five-form Ramond-Ramond fluxes. We obtain these solutions by applying…

In this note, we study a simplified variant of the familiar holographic duality between supergravity on AdS$_3\times S^3\times T^4$ and the SCFT (on the moduli space of) the symmetric orbifold theory $Sym^N(T^4)$ as $N \rightarrow \infty$.…

We construct a Super-Grassmannian for $n-$point functions in $\mathcal{N}=2$ to $4$ SCFT$_3$. The constraints imposed by super-conformal invariance and $R-$symmetry are completely manifest in this formalism through (operator-valued) delta…

We study holographic RG flow solutions within four-dimensional $N=4$ gauged supergravity obtained from type IIA and IIB string theories compactified on $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_2\times \mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifold with gauge, geometric and non-geometric…

The locality of bulk physics at distances below the AdS length is one of the remarkable aspects of AdS/CFT duality, and one of the least tested. It requires that the AdS radius be large compared to the Planck length and the string length.…

We consider supergravity in five-dimensional Anti-De Sitter space $AdS_{5}$ with minimal supersymmetry, encoded by a Sasaki-Einstein metric on a five-dimensional compact manifold $M$. Our main result reveals how the Sasaki-Einstein metric…

We study the $SO(3)$ sector of the $\mathcal{N}=1^*$ mass deformation of $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills on $S^4$. The gravity dual of this sector is $\mathcal{N}=2$ supergravity coupled to two hypermultiplets. The scalar fields in the…

We review recent progress in the study of S-folds in light of the gauge/gravity duality and the AdS swampland conjecture. S-folds correspond to non-geometric backgrounds of type IIB supergravity of the form $\,\textrm{AdS}_4 \, \times \,…

We perform a consistent reduction of 6d matter-coupled F(4) supergravity on a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma_\mathfrak{g}$ of genus $\mathfrak{g}$, at the level of the bosonic action. The result is an $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauged supergravity…

Using a new manner to rescale fields in $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauged supergravity with n$_{V}$ vector multiplets and n$_{H}$ hypermultiplets, we develop the explicit derivation of the rigid limit of quaternionic isometry Ward identities agreeing…

We perform a topological-holomorphic twist of $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric gauge theory on a four-manifold of the form $M_4=\Sigma_1 \times \Sigma_2$ with Riemann surfaces $\Sigma_{1,2}$, and unravel the mathematical implications of its…

We consider string theory on AdS$_3$ $\times$ (S$^3$ $\times$ S$^3$ $\times$ S$^1)/\mathbb Z_2$, a background supporting $\mathcal N=(3,3)$ spacetime supersymmetry. We propose that string theory on this background is dual to the symmetric…

Within the context of top-down holography, we study a one-parameter family of regular background solutions of maximal gauged supergravity in seven dimensions, dimensionally reduced on a 2-torus. The dual, four-dimensional confining field…

In this paper we study half-BPS type IIB supergravity solutions with multiple $AdS_3\times S^3\times M_4$ asymptotic regions, where $M_4$ is either $T^4$ or $K_3$. These solutions were first constructed in [1] and have geometries given by…

This is a very brief review of some results from hep-th/0112154 and hep-th/0209191. In holographic renormalization, we studied the RG flow of a 2d N=(4,4) CFT perturbed by a relevant operator, flowing to a conformal fixed point in the IR.…

Given an asymptotically Anti-de Sitter supergravity solution, one can obtain a microscopic interpretation by identifying the corresponding state in the holographically dual conformal field theory. This is of particular importance for heavy…

Field theories on anti-de Sitter (AdS) space can be studied by realizing them as low-energy limits of AdS vacua of string/M theory. In an appropriate limit, the field theories decouple from the rest of string/M theory. Since these vacua are…

We construct solutions of type-II supergravity based on multiple copies and/or mixings of $\lambda$-deformed coset CFTs on $\mathrm{SO}(n+1)_k/\mathrm{SO}(n)_k$, with $n = 2, 3, 4$. The resulting ten-dimensional geometries contain…
