On Type IIA geometries dual to N = 2 SCFTs

TL;DR

This paper constructs explicit Type IIA supergravity solutions that are conjectured to be dual to four-dimensional N=2 superconformal gauge theories, based on a general ansatz by Gaiotto and Maldacena.

Contribution

It provides explicit supergravity backgrounds corresponding to N=2 SCFTs, advancing the understanding of gauge/gravity duality in this context.

Findings

Explicit Type IIA solutions matching N=2 SCFTs

Solutions based on Gaiotto-Maldacena ansatz

Supports duality between supergravity backgrounds and gauge theories

Abstract

We provide explicit solutions of Type IIA supergravity which are believed to be dual to N = 2 superconformal four dimensional gauge theories. These explicit solutions are based on the general ansatz for such a type of backgrounds introduced by Gaiotto and Maldacena.
