Description

We show how to produce algorithmically gravity solutions in massive IIA (as infinitesimal first-order perturbations in the Romans mass parameter) dual to assigned conformal field theories. We illustrate the procedure on a family of Chern-Simons-matter conformal field theories that we recently obtained from the N=6 theory by waiving the condition that the levels sum up to zero.
