We study spin-2 fluctuations around an infinite family of warped backgrounds of the form $\text{AdS}_2 \times \text{S}^2 \times \text{T}^4 \times \text{S}^1 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho}$ in the type IIB theory, which possesses $\mathcal{N}=4$…
In this paper we study spin 2 fluctuations around a warped $AdS_3 \times S^2 \times T^4 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho}$ background in type IIA supergravity with small $\mathcal{N} = (0,4)$ supersymmetry. We find a class of fluctuations, which…
In this work we revisit the problem of studying spin-2 fluctuations around a class of solutions in massive type IIA that is given by a warped $\text{AdS}_3 \times \text{S}^2 \times \text{T}^4 \times \mathcal{I}_{\rho}$ and with…
We describe holographic properties of near-AdS$_2$ spacetimes that arise within spherically symmetric configurations of ${\cal N}=2$ 4D $U(1)^4$ supergravity, for both gauged and ungauged theories. These theories pose a rich space of…
We study spin-2 excitations in the background of the recently-discovered type-IIB solutions of D'Hoker et al. These are holographically-dual to defect conformal field theories, and they are also of interest in the context of the…
We build a novel time-like coset sigma-model describing type-II superstring theory in a charged rotating black-brane background that interpolates between a locally $AdS_3$ in the IR and a linear-dilaton geometry in the UV. This allows one…
A broad class of holographic duals for 4d $\mathcal N=2$ SCFTs is based on the general half-BPS $AdS_5$ solutions to M-theory constructed by Lin, Lunin and Maldacena, and their Kaluza-Klein reductions to Type IIA. We derive the equations…
We study (massive) spin-2 fluctuations around warped $AdS_6$ solutions with $16$ supersymmetries in type IIB supergravity. We identify two classes of fluctuations which are universally present for all solutions of this form. The…
We discuss some new results on the construction of supersymmetric solutions of Type IIB supergravity of the form ${\rm WAdS}_3\times{\rm WS}^3\times T^4$, ${\rm WAdS}_3$ and ${\rm WS}^3$ denoting \emph{warped} anti-de Sitter spacetime and…
In this paper, we consider the spin-2 field perturbations of four families of supergravity solutions. These include AdS$_5$ and AdS$_7$ backgrounds of type IIA as well as AdS$_4$ and AdS$_6$ backgrounds of Type IIB. As the main result, we…
We consider the four-point function of the stress tensor multiplet superprimary in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills (SYM) with gauge group $SU(N)$ in the large $N$ and large 't Hooft coupling $\lambda\equiv g_\text{YM}^2N$ limit, which is…
In this work, we uncover a collection of non invertible topological operators linked to the 0-, 2-, 4- and 6-form symmetries related to the type IIB superstring effective theory. By pinpointing the $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$-covariant…
We study the importance of spin structures as defining data for 11d supergravity backgrounds of the form AdS$_4\times S^7/\mathbf{Z}_k$ with a free orbifold action. For a generic choice of the orbifold action, there is only one spin…
We show that a class of topological field theories are quantum duals of the harmonic oscillator. This is demonstrated by establishing a correspondence between the creation and annihilation operators and non-local gauge invariant observables…
The solution to the linearized Einstein equation in de Sitter (dS) spacetime and the corresponding two-point function are explicitly written down in a gauge with two parameters `$a$' and `$b$'. The quantization procedure, independent of the…
We present the holographic dual for the strongly coupled, low energy dynamics of balanced ${\cal N}=4$ field theories in $(2+1)$ dimensions. The infinite family of Type IIB backgrounds with AdS$_4\times S^2\times S^2$ factors is described…
We outline a program for interpreting the higher-spin dS/CFT model in terms of physics in the causal patch of a dS observer. The proposal is formulated in "elliptic" de Sitter space dS_4/Z_2, obtained by identifying antipodal points in…
In this paper we study spin-2 excitations for a class of $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric solutions of type-IIA supergravity found by Gaiotto and Maldacena. The mass spectrum of these excitations can be derived by solving a second order…
We initiate the analysis of the Kaluza--Klein mass spectrum of massive IIA supergravity on the warped AdS$_6 \times_w S^4$ background, by deriving the linearised equations of motion of bosonic and fermionic fluctuations, and determining the…
We give an explicit proof of the result that non trivial conserved n-2 forms for a spin 2 field on a background corresponding to a solution to Einstein's equation (with or without cosmological constant) are characterized uniquely by the…
