“…Therefore, the above claim should not be viewed to be in conflict with the recent analysis in [11] (and in particular used, e.g. in [12], for holographic purposes), where some classes of non-supersymmetric AdS extrema in massive type IIA compactifications are found to be even non-perturbatively stable. This analysis is restricted to the closed-string sector, whereas the main take-home message in [9] is that one should worry more about open-string modes when it comes to stability of non-supersymmetric vacua.…”

Abstract:We consider known examples of non-supersymmetric AdS 7 and AdS 4 solutions arising from compactifications of massive type IIA supergravity and study their stability, taking into account the coupling between closed-and open-string sector excitations. Generically, open strings are found to develop modes with masses below the Breitenlohner-Freedman (BF) bound. We comment on the relation with the Weak Gravity Conjecture, and how this analysis may play an important role in examining the validity of non-supersymmetric constructions in string theory.

“…More in general, the range of all possible maximally supersymmetric conformal theories is exhausted by the so-called ADE classification, which can be accessed through geometric engineering in type IIB string theory [3]. When decreasing the amount of supersymmetry down to (1,0), there appears to 2 We refer e.g. to the construction in [1], employing D6-branes in massive type IIA backgrounds.…”

We present a new BPS flow within minimal N = 1 supergravity in seven dimensions describing a warped AdS 3 background supported by a "dyonic" profile of the three-form. Furthermore, we discuss the holographic interpretation of the above solution in terms of a defect SCFT 2 inside the 6d (1, 0) theory dual to the AdS in the asymptotic region. Finally we provide the brane picture of the aforementioned defect CFT as D2-and wrapped D4-branes ending on a D6 -NS5 -D8 funnel in massive type IIA string theory.

“…The corresponding AdS 7 vacua are dual to N = (1, 0) SCFTs, see for example [4,5]. Some of these SCFTs can be obtained from an orbifold of the N = (2, 0) SCFTs [6,7], and recently, an interest in N = (1, 0) SCFTs has been increased by many new results, see [8,9,10,11,12] for an incomplete list. N = 2 gauged supergravity has been constructed for a long time in [13,14,15].…”

We study supersymmetric solutions within seven-dimensional N = 2 gauged supergravity coupled to three vector multiplets in seven dimensions. The gauged supergravity contains six vector fields that gauge the SO(4) ∼ SO(3) × SO(3) symmetry and admits two N = 2 supersymmetric AdS 7 vacua with SO(4) and SO(3) diag ⊂ SO(3) × SO(3) symmetries. We consider solutions interpolating between two asymptotically locally AdS 7 geometries in the presence of a three-form field. For a particular value of the two SO(3) gauge coupling constants, the SO(3) diag supersymmetric AdS 7 vacuum does not exist, but the solutions can be uplifted to eleven dimensions by a known reduction ansatz. We also study solutions of this type and their embedding in M-theory. We further extend these solutions to include the SO(3) diag gauge fields and argue that, in general, this generalization does not lead to supersymmetric solutions.
