N=1 M5-brane geometries

Abstract

We describe how to construct solutions to 11-dimensional supergravity corresponding to M5-branes wrapped on holomorphic 2-cycles embedded in C^3. These solutions preserve N=1 supersymmetry in four dimensions. In the near-horizon limit they are expected to be dual to N=1 large N gauge theories in four dimensions by Maldacena's duality.
