The gravity duals of N=2 superconformal field theories

Understand

We study the gauge/gravity duality for theories with four dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetries.

• We consider the large class of generalized quiver field theories constructed recently by one of us (D.G.).
• These field theories can also be viewed as the IR limit of M5 branes wrapping a Riemann surface with punctures.
• We give a prescription for constructing the corresponding geometries and we discuss a few special cases in detail.
