Advances in AdS/CFT in low dimensions
Maria Anayeli Ramirez Ortiz (Milano Bicocca)


The AdS3/CFT2 correspondence provides the best arena to test the holographic duality. This is because there is a better understanding of how to quantise strings on AdS3, compared with the higher dimensional cases, and the relative tractability of two-dimensional CFTs. In spite of this, little effort has been made to construct and classify supersymmetric AdS3 solutions. With a focus in their CFT interpretation, in this talk I will show you new AdS3 solutions in massive type IIA supergravity preserving small N=(4,0) supersymmetry. From the geometry, we engineer the dual CFT with well-known tools and propose a duality with a precise family of quivers. Additionally, we compute field theory and holographic central charges showing a clean matching in both descriptions.
