Twisted \(\mathcal{N} = 1\) SCFTs and their \(\mathrm{AdS}_3\) duals. (English) Zbl 1435.83145

J. High Energy Phys. 2020, No. 3, Paper No. 32, 53 p. (2020).
Summary: We study compactifications of an infinite family of four-dimensional \(\mathcal{N} = 1\) SCFTs on a Riemann surface in the presence of arbitrary background fluxes for global symmetries. The four-dimensional parent theories have holographic Sasaki-Einstein duals in type IIB string theory. We compute central charges and R-charges of baryonic operators in the resulting two-dimensional \(\mathcal{N} = (0, 2)\) theories in three distinct ways: from the field theory side utilizing c-extremization, its recently discovered geometric dual formulation, and holographically using new \(\mathrm{AdS}_3\) duals of two-dimensional field theories.
