| Abstract: |
We find an explicit supergravity background dual to the Omega-deformation of a four-dimensional N=2 SCFT on R^4. The solution can be constructed in the five-dimensional N=4+ gauged supergravity and has a nontrivial self-dual 2-form. When uplifted to type IIB supergravity the background is a deformation of AdS5xS5 which preserves 24 supercharges. We also discuss generalizations of this solution corresponding to turning on a vacuum expectation value for a scalar operator in the dual SCFT. |
