Description

We present a BPS flow within minimal N=1 supergravity in seven dimensions describing a warped AdS3 background supported by a “dyonic” profile of the three-form. Furthermore, we discuss the holographic interpretation of the above solution in terms of a defect SCFT2 inside the 6d (1,0) theory dual to the AdS in the asymptotic region. Finally we provide the brane picture of the aforementioned defect CFT as D2- and wrapped D4-branes ending on a D6 – NS5 – D8 funnel in massive type IIA string theory.
