Abstract
We study the space of supersymmetric AdS solutions of type IIB supergravity corresponding to the conformal manifold of the dual conformal field theory. We show that the background geometry naturally encodes a generalised holomorphic structure, dual to the superpotential of the field theory, with the existence of the full solution following from a continuity argument. In particular, this provides a solution to the long-standing problem of finding the gravity dual of the generic deformations of conformal field theory. Using this formalism, we derive a new result for the Hilbert series of the deformed field theories.
