Abstract

We construct new supersymmetric Janus solutions from four-dimensional N=3N=3 gauged supergravity coupled to eight vector multiplets with SO(3)×SU(3)SO(3)\times SU(3) gauge group. This gauged supergravity admits a supersymmetric N=3N=3 AdS4AdS_4 vacuum with the full SO(3)×SU(3)SO(3)\times SU(3) symmetry unbroken and a family of supersymmetric N=1,2,3N=1,2,3 and non-supersymmetric AdS4AdS_4 vacua with different residual symmetries. These are expected to be dual to supersymmetric Chern-Simons-Matter (CSM) theories in three dimensions via the AdS/CFT correspondence. By considering a truncation to three complex scalar fields, we find a number of Janus solutions preserving N=1N=1 supersymmetry that describes conformal interfaces within N=3N=3 CSM theories with SO(3)×SU(3)SO(3)\times SU(3) and SU(2)diag×U(1)SU(2)_{\textrm{diag}}\times U(1) symmetries.
