New families of interpolating type IIB backgrounds. (English) Zbl 1272.81168

Summary: We construct new families of interpolating two-parameter solutions of type IIB supergravity. These correspond to D3-D5 systems on non-compact six-dimensional manifolds which are \(\mathbb{T}^{2} \) fibrations over Eguchi-Hanson and multi-center Taub-NUT spaces, respectively. One end of the interpolation corresponds to a solution with only D5 branes and vanishing NS three-form flux. A topology changing transition occurs at the other end, where the internal space becomes a direct product of the four-dimensional surface and the two-torus and the complexified NS-RR three-form flux becomes imaginary self-dual. Depending on the choice of the connections on the torus fibre, the interpolating family has either \(\mathcal{N}=2 \) or \(\mathcal{N}=1 \) supersymmetry. In the \(\mathcal{N}=2 \) case it can be shown that the solutions are regular.
