Abstract

We construct new families of supersymmetric AdS2×M4_2\times\mathbb{M}_4 solutions of D=6D=6 gauged supergravity and AdS3×M4_3\times\mathbb{M}_4 solutions of D=7D=7 gauged supergravity, where M4\mathbb{M}_4 are four-dimensional toric orbifolds with four fixed points. These are presented in a unified fashion, that highlights their common underlying geometry. The D=6D=6 solutions uplift to massive type IIA and describe the near-horizon limit of D4-branes wrapped on M4\mathbb{M}_4, while the D=7D=7 solutions uplift to D=11D=11 supergravity and describe the near-horizon limit of M5-branes wrapped on M4\mathbb{M}_4. We reproduce the entropy and gravitational central charge of the two families by extremizing a function constructed gluing the orbifold gravitational blocks proposed in arXiv:2210.16128.
