Title: Janus and RG interfaces in three-dimensional gauged supergravity. Part II. General α
A bstract In this paper, we continue the study of Janus and RG-flow interfaces in three dimensional supergravity continuing the work presented in [1]. We consider $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 8 gauged supergravity theories which have a $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = (4 , 4) AdS 3 vacuum with D 1 (2 , 1; α ) × D 1 (2 , 1; α ) symmetry for general α . We derive the BPS flow equations and find numerical solutions. Some holographic quantities such as the entanglement entropy are calculated.  more » « less

    A bstract New renormalisation group flows of three-dimensional Chern-Simons theories with a single gauge group SU( N ) and adjoint matter are found holographically. These RG flows have an infrared fixed point given by a CFT with $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 3 supersymmetry and SU(2) flavour symmetry. The ultraviolet fixed point is again described by a CFT with either $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 and SU(3) symmetry or $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 1 and G 2 symmetry. The gauge/gravity duals of these RG flows are constructed as domain-wall solutions of a gauged supergravity model in four dimensions that enjoys an embedding into massive IIA supergravity. A concrete RG flow that brings a mass deformation of the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 CFT into the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 3 CFT at low energies is described in detail.

    A bstract Vacua of different gaugings of D = 4 $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 8 supergravity that preserve the same supersymmetries and bosonic symmetry tend to exhibit the same universal mass spectrum within their respective supergravities. For AdS 4 vacua in gauged supergravities that arise upon consistent truncation of string/M-theory, we show that this universality is lost at higher Kaluza-Klein levels. However, universality is still maintained in a milder form, at least in the graviton sector: certain sums over a finite number of states remain universal. Further, we derive a mass matrix for Kaluza-Klein gravitons which is valid for all the AdS 4 vacua in string/M-theory that uplift from the gaugings of D = 4 $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 8 supergravity that we consider. The mild universality of graviton mass sums is related to the trace of this mass matrix.

    A bstract New techniques based on Exceptional Field Theory have recently allowed for the calculation of the Kaluza-Klein spectra of certain AdS 4 solutions of D = 11 and massive IIA supergravity. These are the solutions that consistently uplift on S 7 and S 6 from vacua of maximal four-dimensional supergravity with SO(8) and ISO(7) gaugings. In this paper, we provide an algorithmic procedure to compute the complete Kaluza-Klein spectrum of five such AdS 4 solutions, all of them $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 1, and give the first few Kaluza-Klein levels. These solutions preserve SO(3) and U(1) × U(1) internal symmetry in D = 11, and U(1) (two of them) and no continuous symmetry in type IIA. Together with previously discussed cases, our results exhaust the Kaluza-Klein spectra of known supersymmetric AdS 4 solutions in D = 11 and type IIA in the relevant class.

    A bstract Exceptional Field Theory has been recently shown to be very powerful to compute Kaluza-Klein spectra. Using these techniques, the mass matrix of Kaluza-Klein vector perturbations about a specific class of AdS 4 solutions of D = 11 and massive type IIA supergravity is determined. These results are then employed to characterise the complete supersymmetric spectrum about some notable $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 and $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 3 AdS 4 solutions in this class, which are dual to specific three-dimensional superconformal Chern-Simons field theories.

    A bstract A holographic duality was recently established between an $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 4 non-geometric AdS 4 solution of type IIB supergravity in the so-called S-fold class, and a three- dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) defined as a limit of $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 4 super-Yang-Mills at an interface. Using gauged supergravity, the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 conformal manifold (CM) of this CFT has been assessed to be two-dimensional. Here, we holographically characterise the large- N operator spectrum of the marginally-deformed CFT. We do this by, firstly, providing the algebraic structure of the complete Kaluza-Klein (KK) spectrum on the associated two-parameter family of AdS4 solutions. And, secondly, by computing the $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 super-multiplet dimensions at the first few KK levels on a lattice in the CM, using new exceptional field theory techniques. Our KK analysis also allows us to establish that, at least at large N , this $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 CM is topologically a non-compact cylindrical Riemann surface bounded on only one side.
