Abstract

We reconsider a one-parameter class of known solutions of the circle compactification of Romans six-dimensional half-maximal supergravity. The gauge-theory duals ofthese solutions are confining four-dimensional field theories. Their UV completions consist of the compactification on a circle of a hig...
