Abstract

We employ a non-compact gauging of four-dimensional maximal supergravityto construct a two-parameter family of AdS4 J-fold solutions preserving N = 2 supersymmetry. All solutions preserve u(1) × u(1) global symmetry and in special limits we recover the previously known su(2)×u(1) invariant N = 2 and su(2)×su(2) invariant N = 4 J-fold solutions. This family of AdS4 backgrounds can be uplifted to type IIB string theory and is holographically dual to the conformal manifold of a class of three-dimensional S-fold SCFTs obtained from the N = 4 T[U(N)] theory of Gaiotto-Witten. We find the spectrum of supergravity excitations of the AdS4 solutions and use it to study how the operator spectrum of the three-dimensional SCFT depends on the exactly marginal couplings.
