We construct the 11-dimensional lift of the known N=2 supersymmetric RG flow solution in 4-dimensional N=8 gauged supergravity. The squashed and stretched 7-dimensional internal metric preserving SU(2) x U(1) x U(1)_R symmetry contains an…

A general formalism to construct and improve supercurrents and source or anomaly superfields in two-derivative N=1 supersymmetric theories is presented. It includes arbitrary gauge and chiral superfields and a linear superfield coupled to…

In type IIB string theory, we consider fractional D3-branes in the orbifold background dual to four-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We find the gravitational dual description of the generation of a non-trivial field theory…

We study six-dimensional $F(4)$ gauged supergravity coupled to four vector multiplets with a non-semisimple $ISO(3)\times U(1)$ gauge group. This gauged supergravity arises from a consistent truncation of type IIB string theory on…

We establish the conditions for supersymmetric domain wall solutions to N=4 gauged supergravity in five dimensions. These read as BPS first-order equations for the warp factor and the scalar fields, driven by a superpotential and…

An infra-red fixed point of ${\mathcal N}=1$ super-Yang-Mills theory is believed to be dual to a solution of five-dimensional gauged ${\mathcal N}=8$ supergravity. We test this conjecture at next to leading order in the large $N$ expansion…

We derive and solve a subset of the fluctuation equations about two domain wall solutions of D=5, N=8 gauged supergravity. One solution is dual to D=4, N=4 SYM theory perturbed by an N=1, SO(3)-invariant mass term and the other to a Coulomb…

We present a new compactification of chiral, N=2 ten-dimensional supergravity down to five dimensions and show that it corresponds to the N=2 supersymmetric critical point of five-dimensional, N=8 gauged supergravity found in [KPW]. This…

We study the gravitational duals of $d$-dimensional Yang-Mills theories with $d\leq 6$ in the presence of an ${\cal O} (N^2)$ density of heavy quarks, with $N$ the number of colors. For concreteness we focus on maximally supersymmetric…

The world volume theory on N regular and M fractional D3-branes at the conifold singularity is a non-conformal n=1 supersymmetric SU(N+M) x SU(N) gauge theory. In previous work the Type IIB supergravity dual of this theory was constructed…

We consider warped type IIB supergravity solutions with three-form flux and ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetry, which arise as the supergravity duals of confining gauge theories. We first work in a perturbation expansion around $AdS_5 \times S^5$,…

We find the warped AdS_4 x K type-IIB supergravity solutions holographically dual to a large family of three dimensional \cN=4 superconformal field theories labeled by a pair (\rho,\hat\rho) of partitions of N. These superconformal theories…

We study various types of holographic solutions from five-dimensional $N=4$ gauged supergravity coupled to three vector multiplets with $SO(2)\times ISO(3)$ gauge group. This gauged supergravity can be obtained from the maximal gauged…

We present a new family of IR dualities in three space-time dimensions with eight supercharges. In contrast to 3d mirror symmetry, these dualities map Coulomb branches to Coulomb branches and Higgs branches to Higgs branches in the deep IR.…

A supersymmetric vacuum has to obey a set of constraints on fluxes as well as first order differential equations defined by the G-structures of the internal manifold. We solve these equations for type IIB supergravity with SU(3) structures.…

We construct D=10 supergravity solutions corresponding to type IIB fivebranes wrapping a two-sphere in a Calabi-Yau two-fold. These are related in the IR to the large N limit of pure N=2 SU(N) super Yang-Mills theory. We show that the…

We study the supergravity dual of four-dimensional ${\mathcal{N}=1}$ superconformal field theories arising from wrapping M5-branes on a K\"ahler two-cycle inside a Calabi-Yau threefold. We derive an effective three-dimensional theory living…

We construct an RG potential for N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills theory, and extract a positive definite metric by comparing its gradient with the recently discovered beta-function for this system, thus proving that the RG flow is…

We consider N=2 supergravity in four dimensions, coupled to an arbitrary number of vector- and hypermultiplets, where abelian isometries of the quaternionic hyperscalar target manifold are gauged. Using a static and spherically or…

The M-theory lift of N=1 G_2-invariant RG flow via a combinatoric use of the 4-dimensional RG flow and 11-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell equations was found some time ago. The 11-dimensional metric, a warped product of an asymptotically AdS_4…
