Global half-BPS solutions in Type IIB

Abstract: (Springer)
We investigate half-BPS Type IIB supergravity solutions with spacetime geometry AdS × S warped over a Riemann surface Σ. The general local solution was obtained in earlier work in terms of two holomorphic functions on Σ. In the first part of this paper we seek global solutions corresponding to the near-horizon behavior of (p, q)-string junctions. We identify the type of singularity in needed at the boundary of Σ to match the solutions locally onto the classic (p, q)-string solution. We construct solutions with multiple (p, q)-strings, but the existence of geodesically complete solutions remains unsettled. In a second part we construct multi-parameter families of non-compact globally regular and geodesically complete solutions with asymptotic regions and an AdS throat which caps off smoothly.Note:
