Supersymmetric ๐โโn, AdS near horizons and orbifolds
ๆ่ฆ
We construct and study the supersymmetry properties of the weighted projective spaces ๐โโ2 and ๐โโ3. These are topologically โโn with n + 1 orbifold singularities and as such are higher dimensional analogues of the โspindleโ or ๐โโ1. We use these to construct interesting supersymmetric orbifolds of canonical near horizon geometries of relevance to the AdS/CFT correspondence. Interestingly, for certain tunings of their integer weights, and unlike the spindle, ๐โโ2 and ๐โโ3 are compatible with supersymmetry beyond the realm of gauged supergravity. This allows one to construct interesting supersymmetric solutions in type II supergravity such as AdS5 ร ๐โโ2 ร S1 and AdS4 ร ๐โโ3 via duality, in which ๐โโn appears without a connection fibred over it. We also leverage our results to construct a supersymmetric AdS3 solution containing a topological ๐(1,1) space with 4 orbifold singularities.
