Gluing two discs into a spindle
摘要
We construct AdS5 × Σ solutions of D = 7 gauged supergravity where Σ is a disc, also known as a half-spindle, and uplift them to D = 11 supergravity. By computing the anomaly polynomial of the M5-brane theory compactified on Σ in the large N limit, we obtain the off-shell central charges of the dual D = 4,
