We continue our study of a general class of $mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric $AdS_3times Y_7$ and $AdS_2times Y_9$ solutions of type IIB and $D=11$ supergravity, respectively. The geometry of the internal spaces is part of a general family of GK geometries, $Y_{2n+1}$, $nge 3$, and here we study examples in which $Y_{2n+1}$ fibres over a Kahler base manifold $B_{2k}$, with toric fibres. We show that the flux quantization conditions, and an action function that determines the supersymmetric $R$-symmetry Killing vector of a geometry, may all be written in terms of the master volume of the fibre, together with certain global data associated with the Kahler base. In particular, this allows one to compute the central charge and entropy of the holographically dual $(0,2)$ SCFT and dual superconformal quantum mechanics, respectively, without knowing the explicit form of the $Y_7$ or $Y_9$ geometry. We illustrate with a number of examples, finding agreement with explicit supergravity solutions in cases where these are known, and we also obtain new results. In addition we present, en passant, new formulae for calculating the volumes of Sasaki-Einstein manifolds.
This is a review of how sigma models formulated in Superspace have become important tools for understanding geometry. Topics included are: The (hyper)kahler reduction; projective superspace; the generalized Legendre construction; generalized Kahler g
The seven and nine dimensional geometries associated with certain classes of supersymmetric $AdS_3$ and $AdS_2$ solutions of type IIB and D=11 supergravity, respectively, have many similarities with Sasaki-Einstein geometry. We further elucidate thei
We study Lorentzian supersymmetric configurations in $D=4$ and $D=5$ gauged $mathcal{N}=2$ supergravity. We show that there are smooth $1/2$ BPS solutions which are asymptotically AdS$_{4}$ and AdS$_{5}$ with a planar boundary, a compact spacelike di
We compute holographic complexity for the non-supersymmetric Janus deformation of AdS$_5$ according to the volume conjecture. The result is characterized by a power-law ultraviolet divergence. When a ball-shaped region located around the interface is
We consider genuine type IIB string theory (supersymmetric) brane intersections that preserve $(1+1)$D Lorentz symmetry. We provide the full supergravity solutions in their analytic form and discuss their physical properties. The Ansatz for the space
