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…
Singularity Resolution in Gauged Supergravity and Conifold Unification
J. D. Edelstein, A. Paredes, A. V. Ramallo
We obtain a unified picture for the conifold singularity resolution. We propose that gauged supergravity, through a novel prescription for the twisting, provides an appropriate fra…
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…
Wrapped branes with fluxes in 8d gauged supergravity
J. D. Edelstein, A. Paredes, A. V. Ramallo
We study the gravity dual of several wrapped D-brane configurations in presence of 4-form RR fluxes partially piercing the unwrapped directions. We present a systematic approach to…
