“…In [54,55], Type IIB AdS 6 solutions dual to 5d SCFTs with gauge theory deformations as balanced quivers were formulated in a way which directly connects to gauge theory language. This covers the + N,M and T N solutions, and the S-dual of the Y N solution has a balanced quiver description given in (4.38).…”

We use a combination of AdS/CFT and supersymmetric localization to study codimension-2 defects in 5d SCFTs and their gauge theory deformations. The 5d SCFTs are engineered by (p, q) 5-brane webs, with defects realized by D3-branes ending on the 5-brane webs. We obtain the defect free energies and find that gauge theory descriptions of the combined 5d/3d systems can be connected to the UV defect SCFTs through a form of F-maximization which extremizes over different gauge theory defects. This leads to a match between the defect free energies obtained from supersymmetric localization in the gauge theories on the one hand and string theory results on the other. We extend this match to defect RG flows.

“…The holographic expectation value for a Wilson loop in the rank-ℓ antisymmetric representation ∧ ℓ of SU(N j ) (respectively U(N j )) in long quivers of the type depicted in Figure 3, were investigated in [100][101][102]. In the usual Hanany-Witten brane setups associated with the 5d (resp.…”

We enlarge the dictionary between matrix models for long linear quivers preserving eight supercharges in d=5d=5 and d=3d=3 and type IIB supergravity backgrounds with AdS_{d+1}d+1 factors. We introduce mass deformations of the field theory that break the quiver into a collection of interacting linear quivers, which are decoupled at the end of the RG flow. We find and solve a Laplace problem in supergravity which realises these deformations holographically. The free energy and expectation values of antisymmetric Wilson loops are calculated on both sides of the proposed duality, finding agreement. With our matching procedure, the free energy satisfies a strong version of the F-theorem.

We construct a new family of Type IIB backgrounds that are dual to five dimensional conformal field theories compactified and deformed by VEVs of certain operators. This generates an RG flow into a smooth background dual to non-SUSY gapped field theories in four dimensions. We study various holographic observables: a monotonic quantity associated with the number of degrees of freedom, Wilson loops that interpolate between conformal and confining behaviour with the possibility of screening, Entanglement Entropy, etc. We also give a prescription to compute the Holographic Complexity in this type of backgrounds and calculate the spectrum of spin-two glueballs of the field theories.
