Marginal deformations from type IIA supergravity
Nikolay Bobev, Pieter Bomans, Fridrik Freyr Gautason +1
We study marginal deformations of a class of three-dimensional SCFTs that admit a holographic dual description in massive type IIA supergravity. We compute the dime…
Wrapped Branes and Punctured Horizons
Nikolay Bobev, Pieter Bomans, Fridrik Freyr Gautason
Large classes of AdS supergravity backgrounds describing the IR dynamics of -branes wrapped on a Riemann surface are determined by a solution to the Liouville equation. The…
Supersymmetric Yang-Mills, Spherical Branes, and Precision Holography
Nikolay Bobev, Pieter Bomans, Fridrik Freyr Gautason +2
Using supersymmetric localization we compute the free energy and BPS Wilson loop vacuum expectation values for planar maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on in the str…
Spherical Branes
Nikolay Bobev, Pieter Bomans, Fridrik Freyr Gautason
We construct new solutions of ten-dimensional supergravity with sixteen supercharges which describe the backreaction of D-branes with spherical worldvolume. These solutions are…
