Abstract
We propose a stringy construction giving rise to a class of interacting and non-supersymmetric CFT’s in six dimensions. Such theories may be obtained as an IR conformal fixed point of an RG flow ending up in a (1, 0) theory in the UV. We provide the due holographic evidence in the context of massive type IIA on AdS7 × M3, where M3 is topologically an S 3 . In particular, in this paper we present a 10d flow solution which may be interpreted as a non-BPS bound state of NS5, D6 and D6 branes. Moreover, by adopting its 7d effective description, we are able to holographically compute the free energy and the operator spectrum in the novel IR conformal fixed point.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
