Supersymmetric defects in the Maldacena-Nunez background
Felipe Canoura, Angel Paredes, Alfonso V. Ramallo
We find supersymmmetric configurations of a D5-brane probe in the Maldacena-Nunez background which are extended along one or two of the spatial directions of the gauge theory. Thes…

Let's Twist Again: General Metrics of G(2) Holonomy from Gauged Supergravity
J. D. Edelstein, A. Paredes, A. V. Ramallo
We construct all complete metrics of cohomogeneity one G(2) holonomy with S^3 x S^3 principal orbits from gauged supergravity. Our approach rests on a generalization of the twistin…
