چکیده

We find solutions of 11-dimensional supergravity for M5-branes wrapped on Riemann surfaces. These solutions preserve N = 2 fourdimensional supersymmetry. They are dual to N = 2 gauge theories, including non-conformal field theories. We work out the case of N = 2 Yang-Mills in detail.

Gravity Duals of Fractional Branes in Various Dimensions

We derive type II supergravity solutions corresponding to space-filling regular and fractional Dp branes on (9− p)-dimensional conical transverse spaces. Fractional Dp-branes are wrapped D(p + 2)-branes; therefore, our solutions exist only if the base of the cone has a non-vanishing Betti number b2. We also consider 11-dimensional SUGRA solutions corresponding to regular and fractional M2 brane...

N = 4 Chern-simons Theories and Wrapped M-branes in Their Gravity Duals

We investigate a class of N = 4 quiver Chern-Simons theories and their gravity duals. We define the group of fractional D3-brane charges in a type IIB brane setup with taking account of D3-brane creation due to Hanany-Witten effect, and confirm that it agrees with the 3-cycle homology of the dual geometry, which describes the charges of fractional M2branes, M5-branes wrapped on 3-cycles. The re...

M/F theory orbifolds

We consider M-theory on (T ×R)/Zn with M5 branes wrapped on R2. One can probe this background with M5 branes wrapped on T2. The theories on the probes provide many new examples of N = 2 field theories without Lagrangian description. All these theories have Coulomb branches, and we find the corresponding SeibergWitten curves. The exact solution is encoded in a Hitchin system on an orbifolded tor...
