AdS2 solutions and their massive IIA origin

Abstract

Abstract We consider warped AdS2 × ℳ4 backgrounds within F(4) gauged supergravity in six dimensions. In particular, we are able to find supersymmetric solutions of the aforementioned type characterized by AdS6 asymptotics and an ℳ4 given by a three-sphere warped over a segment. Subsequently, we provide the 10D uplift of the solutions to massive type IIA supergravity, where the geometry is AdS2 × S 3 × S ˜ 3 $$ {\tilde{S}}^3 $$ warped over a strip. Finally we construct the brane intersection underlying one of these supergravity backgrounds. The explicit setup involves a D0-F1-D4 bound state intersecting a D4-D8 system.
