Zooming out of AdS $_{4} \times$ S $^{2} \times$ S $^{2}$ : The Branes behind the CFT's

Iosif Bena, Antoine Bourget, RaphaÃ«l Dulac +2

We reveal the supersymmetric brane configurations that give rise to AdS $_{4} \times$ S $^{2} \times$ S $^{2}$ supergravity solutions, which are holographic duals to three-dimensional $N = 4$ CFT…

Effervescent Spikes in M-theory

Iosif Bena, RaphaÃ«l Dulac, Dimitrios Toulikas +1

AdS $_{3} \times$ S $^{3} \times$ S $^{3}$ solutions warped over a Riemann surface, $I^£$ , are indexed by a parameter, $I^^{3}$ , that defines the superconformal algebra, $D(2,1; Î³) \oplus D(2,1…

Maze Topiary in Supergravity

Iosif Bena, Anthony Houppe, Dimitrios Toulikas +1

We show that the supergravity solutions for 1/4-BPS intersecting systems of M2 and M5 branes are completely characterized by a single ``maze'' function that satisfies a non-linear…

The M2-M5 Mohawk

Iosif Bena, Soumangsu Chakraborty, Dimitrios Toulikas +1

We show that the near-brane back-reaction of M2 branes ending on M5 branes has a rich "spike structure" that is determined by partitioning the numbers of M2 branes that are termina…

Waves on Mazes

Iosif Bena, RaphaÃ«l Dulac, Anthony Houppe +2

One way to describe the entropy of black holes comes from partitioning momentum charge across fractionated intersecting brane systems. Here we construct $\frac{1}{8}$ -BPS solutions…
