A seismic tsunami in the Irish annals, recorded at Iona in October 720
Oisín A. P. Mac Conamhna
A historical record of a seismic tsunami is identified in the Irish annals for October 720 (all dates herein CE). It is contained in the earliest stratum of the annals, which survi…
Spacetime singularity resolution by M-theory fivebranes: calibrated geometry, Anti-de Sitter solutions and special holonomy metrics
Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna
The supergravity description of various configurations of supersymmetric M-fivebranes wrapped on calibrated cycles of special holonomy manifolds is studied. The description is prov…
AdS spacetimes from wrapped D3-branes
Jerome P. Gauntlett, Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna
We derive a geometrical characterisation of a large class of AdS_3 and AdS_2 supersymmetric spacetimes in IIB supergravity with non-vanishing five-form flux using G-structures. The…
Inverting geometric transitions: explicit Calabi-Yau metrics for the Maldacena-Nunez solutions
Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna
Explicit Calabi-Yau metrics are derived that are argued to map to the Maldacena-Nuñez AdS solutions of M-theory and IIB under geometric transitions. In each case the metrics are si…
Global geometry of the supersymmetric AdS_3/CFT_2 correspondence in M-theory
Pau Figueras, Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna, Eoin O Colgain
We study the global geometry of a general class of spacetimes of relevance to the supersymmetric correspondence in eleven-dimensional supergravity. Specifically, we s…
New supersymmetric AdS_3 solutions
Jerome P. Gauntlett, Oisin A. P. Mac Conamhna, Toni Mateos +1
We construct infinite new classes of supersymmetric solutions of D=11 supergravity that are warped products of AdS_3 with an eight-dimensional manifold M_8 and have non-vanishing f…
