Marginal deformations and RG flows for type IIB S-folds

Abstract

We construct a continuous one parameter family of $Ad{S}_4\times S^1\times S^5$ S-fold solutions of type IIB string theory which have nontrivial $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ monodromy in the $S^1$ direction. The solutions span a subset of a conformal manifold that contains the known $\mathcal{N}=4$ S-fold SCFT in $d=3$, and generically preserve $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry. We also construct RG flows across dimensions, from $Ad{S}_5\times S^5$, dual to $\mathcal{N}=4$, $d=4$ SYM compactified with a twisted spatial circle, to various $Ad{S}_4\times S^1\times S^5$ S-fold solutions, dual to $d=3$ SCFTs. We construct additional flows between the $Ad{S}_5$ dual of the Leigh-Strassler SCFT and an $\mathcal{N}=2$ S-fold as well as RG flows between various S-folds.
