Wilson Surface Central Charge from Holographic Entanglement Entropy
John Estes, Darya Krym, Andy O'Bannon +2
We use entanglement entropy to define a central charge associated to a two-dimensional defect or boundary in a conformal field theory (CFT). We present holographic calculations of…
Near Horizon Geometry of Strings Ending on Intersecting D8/D4-branes
John Estes, Darya Krym, Bert Van Pol
We consider solutions of massive IIA supergravity corresponding to the half-BPS intersection of D8/D4-branes with fundamental strings. The -dimensional intersection preserves…
M-theory Solutions Invariant under
Constantin Bachas, Eric D'Hoker, John Estes +1
We simplify and extend the construction of half-BPS solutions to 11-dimensional supergravity, with isometry superalgebra D(2,1;γ) \oplus D(2,1;γ). Their space-time has the form AdS…
Exact Half-BPS Flux Solutions in M-theory with Symmetry: Local Solutions
John Estes, Roman Feldman, Darya Krym
We construct local solutions to 11-dimensional supergravity (or M-theory), which are invariant under the superalgebra for all values of the pa…
String Junctions and Holographic Interfaces
Marco Chiodaroli, Michael Gutperle, Ling-Yan Hung +1
In this paper we study half-BPS type IIB supergravity solutions with multiple asymptotic regions, where is either or . These solutions…
Half-BPS Solutions locally asymptotic to AdS_3 x S^3 and interface conformal field theories
Marco Chiodaroli, Michael Gutperle, Darya Krym
Type IIB superstring theory has AdS_3 x S^3 x M_4 (where the manifold M_4 is either K_3 or T^4) solutions which preserve sixteen supersymmetries. In this paper we consider half-BPS…
