We consider multicenter supergravity solutions corresponding to Higgs phases of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with Z_N symmetric vacua. In certain energy regimes, we find a description in terms of a generalized wormhole solution that…
Employing the method applied to construct $AdS_5$ solutions from M5-branes recently by Bah, Bonetti, Minasian and Nardoni, we construct supersymmetric $AdS_3$ solutions from D3-branes and M5-branes wrapped on a disc with non-trivial…
The supergravity solutions to various $p$-branes are presented and typically it breaks one quarter of supersymmetry except for the D1 brane case, where it breaks one half of supersymmetry and are manifestly non-relativistic in nature. The…
A class of solutions to Supergravity in 10 or 11 dimensions is presented which extends the non-standard or semi-local intersections of Dp-branes to the case of non-extremal p-branes. The type of non-extremal solutions involved in the…
Gravity coupled to an arbitrary number of antisymmetric tensors and scalar fields in arbitrary space-time dimensions is studied in a context of general, static, spherically symmetric solutions with many orthogonally intersecting branes.…
We review the blackfold description of the fully localized orthogonal M2-M5 intersection in eleven-dimensional supergravity which constitutes the direct gravitational analogue of the Howe-Lambert-West self-dual string soliton solution. We…
Five-branes lead in four dimensions to massless N=1 supermultiplets if M-theory is compactified on S1/Z2 x (a Calabi-Yau threefold). One of them describes the modulus associated with the position of the five-brane along the circle S1. We…
We study supersymmetric $AdS_5\times \Sigma$ solutions, for $\Sigma$ being a topological disk with non-trivial $U(1)$ holonomy at the boundary or "half-spindle", in seven-dimensional $N=2$ gauged supergravity coupled to three vector…
In this paper we investigate the form of calibrated M5-branes in the presence of a nonvanishing 3-form field H. We discuss the influence of the H-field on the deformation of supersymmetric n-cycles (in particular SLAG submanifolds in R^n).…
We study the dimensional reduction of M5-branes wrapping special Lagrangian 3-cycles of a Calabi-Yau manifold and show explicitly that they result in 2-branes coupled to the hypermultiplets of ungauged N=2 D=5 supergravity theory. In…
We construct dual supergravity descriptions of D3-branes wrapping associative 3-cycles $L$. We analyse the conditions for having five-dimensional background solutions of the form $AdS_2 \times L$ and show that they require $L$ to be of…
We analyse the geometrical structure of supersymmetric solutions of type II supergravity of the form R^{1,9-n} x M_n with non-trivial NS flux and dilaton. Solutions of this type arise naturally as the near-horizon limits of wrapped NS…
In a recent paper, Ohta and Townsend studied the conditions which must be satisfied for a configuration of two intersecting M5-branes at angles to be supersymmetric. In this paper we extend this result to any number of M5-branes or any…
We present an ansatz for black 2-branes in five dimensional N=2 supergravity theory that carry magnetic charge with respect to general hypermultiplet scalars. We find explicit solutions in certain special cases and examine the constraints…
We first investigate intersections of an S-brane with a single p-brane and show that in addition to the already known solutions, it is possible to place the S-brane so that the radial part of the p-brane is not included in its worldvolume.…
We construct the embedding of the $\lambda$-model on $SL(2, \mathbb{R}) \times SU(2) \times SU(2)$ in type-II supergravity. In the absence of deformation, the ten-dimensional background corresponds to the near-horizon limit of the…
It is known that the M-branes of M-theory correspond to p-form charges in the D=11 spacetime supersymmetry algebra. Here we show that their intersections are encoded in the p-form charges of their worldvolume supersymmetry algebras. Triple…
We study the central charges of the supersymmetry algebra of branes in backgrounds corresponding to wrapped M5-branes. In the case of M5-branes wrapping a holomorphic 2-cycle in two complex-dimensional space, we find this allows for a…
We construct analytically a perturbative supergravity solution that captures the backreaction of a metastable state of anti-branes in the background of a particular modification of the Klebanov-Strassler throat in a long-wavelength…
We comment on the recent papers by Costa et al and Emparan, which show how one might generate supergravity solutions describing certain dielectric branes in ten dimensions. The ``basic'' such solutions describe either N fundamental strings…
