<strong>Holographic</strong> duals <strong>of</strong> 2d <strong>in</strong>terface theories<br />

M. Gutperle UCLA<br />

Global regularity conditions<br />

• Local solution solves BPS and equation <strong>of</strong> motion, solution can be<br />

s<strong>in</strong>gular, geodesically <strong>in</strong>complete or real fields can be complex<br />

• Boundary <strong>of</strong> Riemann surface; Locus where 2 sphere shr<strong>in</strong>ks to<br />

zero size: f 2 → 0<br />

• Asymptotic region <strong>of</strong> AdS 3 isolated po<strong>in</strong>ts where AdS 2 blows up<br />

f 1 →∞<br />

• Volume <strong>of</strong><br />

K 3 and dilaton/axion must rema<strong>in</strong> f<strong>in</strong>ite<br />

f1 2 f2 2 f3 4 = H 2<br />

Boundary <strong>of</strong> Σ: H vanishes apart form isolated poles
