D=5 SU(2)xU(1) Gauged Supergravity from D=11 Supergravity

Abstract

We consider the most general class of supersymmetric solutions of D=11 supergravity consisting of a warped product of AdS5 with a six-dimensional internal manifold N6, which are dual to N=2 super conformal field theories in d=4. For any such N6 we construct the full non-linear Kaluza-Klein ansatz for the reduction of D=11 supergravity on N6 down to D=5 SU(2)xU(1) gauged supergravity, at the level of the bosonic fields. This allows one to uplift any solution of the D=5 supergravity to obtain a solution of D=11 supergravity for any given N6. Using an explicit N6, corresponding to M5-branes wrapping holomorphic curves in a Calabi-Yau two-fold, we uplift some solutions and comment upon their interpretation.
