The gravity duals of N=2 superconformal field theories
read the original abstract
We study the gauge/gravity duality for theories with four dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetries. We consider the large class of generalized quiver field theories constructed recently by one of us (D.G.). These field theories can also be viewed as the IR limit of M5 branes wrapping a Riemann surface with punctures. We give a prescription for constructing the corresponding geometries and we discuss a few special cases in detail. There is a precise match for various quantities between the field theory and the M-theory description.

Consistent subsectors of maximal supergravity and wrapped M5-branes
New family of maximal 4D gauged supergravities with trombone gauging admits supersymmetric AdS vacua related to M5-branes and provides sufficient conditions for consistent subtruncations from groups not contained in t...

(Iso)spin from Isospin in Top-Down Holography
Supergravity backgrounds with monopoles on S2 exhibit diagonal symmetry upon uplift, causing SU(2)-SO(3) angular momentum mixing in fluctuations analogous to the Jackiw-Rebbi-Hasenfratz-'t Hooft effect.

Stability of non-supersymmetric vacua from calibrations
Uses calibrations to protect examined non-supersymmetric AdS vacua in type II string theory from D-brane mediated decays, including abelian bound states.
