Supersymmetric asymptotically locally AdS$_5$ gravitational solitons

We construct supersymmetric gravitational soliton solutions of five-dimensional gauged supergravity coupled to arbitrarily many vector multiplets. The solutions are complete, globally stationary, $1/4$-BPS and are asymptotically locally AdS$_5$ with conformal boundary $\mathbb{R} \times L(p,1)$. The construction uses an $SU(2) \times U(1)-$invariant ansatz originally used by Gutowski and Reall to construct supersymmetric asymptotically AdS$_5$ black holes. A subset of these solutions have previously been obtained as supersymmetric limits of a class of local solutions of $U(1)^3$ gauged supergravity found by Chong-Cvetic-Lu-Pope, and by Lucietti-Ovchinnikov in their classification of $SU(2)$-invariant solutions of minimal gauged supergravity.

Phase Transitions and Stability of Eguchi-Hanson-AdS Solitons

The Eguchi-Hanson-AdS$_5$ family of spacetimes are a class of static, geodesically complete asymptotically locally AdS$_5$ soliton solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations with negative cosmological constant. They have negative mass and are parameterized by an integer $p\geq 3$ with a conformal boundary with spatial topology $L(p,1)$. We investigate mode solutions of the scalar wave equation on this background and show that, similar to AdS$_5$, the geometry admits a normal mode spectrum (i.e. solutions that neither grow or decay in time). In addition, we also discuss other geometric properties of these soliton spacetimes, including the behaviour of causal geodesics and their thermodynamic properties. We also point out a surprising connection with the AdS soliton.

Supersymmetric multi-charge solitons in AdS$_5$

We construct supersymmetric, asymptotically AdS$_5$ gravitational soliton solutions of five-dimensional gauged supergravity coupled to arbitrarily many vector multiplets. These generalize the supersymmetric solitons of $U(1)^3$ gauged supergravity previously constructed by Chong, Cvetic, Lu, and Pope. We show that the solitons contain evanescent ergosurfaces and give an argument that these solitons should be nonlinearly unstable.
