M5-branes wrapped on a spindle
Abstract We construct supersymmetric AdS 5 × Σ solutions of D = 7 gauged supergravity, where Σ is a two-dimensional orbifold known as a spindle. These uplift on S 4 to solutions of D = 11 supergravity which have orbifold singularites. We argue that the solutions are dual to d = 4, N $$ \mathcal{N} $...

Sumario: | Abstract We construct supersymmetric AdS 5 × Σ solutions of D = 7 gauged supergravity, where Σ is a two-dimensional orbifold known as a spindle. These uplift on S 4 to solutions of D = 11 supergravity which have orbifold singularites. We argue that the solutions are dual to d = 4, N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 SCFTs that arise from N M5-branes wrapped on a spindle, embedded as a holomorphic curve inside a Calabi-Yau three-fold. In contrast to the usual topological twist solutions, the superconformal R-symmetry mixes with the isometry of the spindle in the IR, and we verify this via a field theory calculation, as well as reproducing the gravity formula for the central charge. |
