We present explicit examples of supergravity solutions corresponding to backreacting localised (non-intersecting) O6 planes in flux reductions of massive IIA supergravity and address some criticism towards the very existence of such solutions. We verify in detail how the smeared orientifold solution becomes a good approximation to the localised solution in the large volume/weak coupling limit, as expected. We also find an exotic solution where prior to backreaction the internal space has a boundary and when backreaction is included the boundary disappears and the space closes off. The exotic example is however outside of the supergravity approximation everywhere.

  1. Integer dual dimensions in scale-separated AdS$_3$ from massive IIA

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Massive IIA flux compactifications on singular and Joyce G2 orbifolds yield scale-separated AdS3 vacua whose dual operator dimensions are integer up to parametrically small corrections.
