New IIB intersecting brane solutions yielding supersymmetric AdS3 vacua

Abstract

Abstract We consider different (supersymmetric) brane intersections in type IIB string theory 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 spacetime dependence of the different brane warp factors goes beyond the harmonic superposition principle. By studying the associated near-horizon geometry, we construct interesting classes of AdS3 vacua in type IIB and highlight their relation to the existing classifications in the literature. Finally, we discuss their holographic properties.
