abstract

We construct infinite new classes of $AdS_4\times S^1\times S^5$ solutions of type IIB string theory which have non-trivial $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ monodromy along the $S^1$ direction. The solutions are supersymmetric and holographically dual, generically, to $\mathcal{N}=1$ SCFTs in $d=3$. The solutions are first constructed as $AdS_4\times \mathbb{R}$ solutions in $D=5$ $SO(6)$ gauged supergravity and then uplifted to $D=10$. Unlike the known $AdS_4\times \mathbb{R}$ S-fold solutions, there is no continuous symmetry associated with the $\mathbb{R}$ direction. The solutions all arise as limiting cases of Janus solutions of $d=4$, $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM theory which are supported both by a different value of the coupling constant on either side of the interface, as well as by fermion and boson mass deformations. As special cases, the construction recovers three known S-fold constructions, preserving $\mathcal{N}=1,2$ and 4 supersymmetry, as well as a recently constructed $\mathcal{N}=1$ $AdS_4\times S^1\times S^5$ solution (not S-folded). We also present some novel "one-sided Janus" solutions that are non-singular.

  1. On the spectra of holographic QFTs on constant curvature manifolds

    hep-th 2025-05 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For holographic QFTs on constant-curvature manifolds, the spectrum is always discrete for negative curvature and always has a continuous component starting at m^2 = (9/4)α^{-2} for positive curvature.

  2. Type IIB Supergravity Action and Holography

    hep-th 2026-03 accept novelty 5.5 of 10

    A milder topological correction to the PST Type IIB action yields non-vanishing on-shell values matching holography for Lunin-Maldacena and AdS4 S-fold backgrounds.
