abstract:

The strongly coupled Argyres-Douglas field theories have particular significance among four-dimensional N=2 SCFTs. In this talk, we describe new AdS5 solutions in 11d supergravity and identify them as the gravity duals of a large class of Argyres-Douglas theories, engineered via a stack of M5-branes wrapping a sphere. A notable feature of the gravity solutions is an internal M5-brane source, which is dual to an irregular puncture on the sphere. We explain how the holographic data (including central charges) match the data of the dual Argyres-Douglas field theories
