Abstract
We construct Type IIB supergravity solutions with geometry AdS6×S2 warped over a disc with two boundary points where 5-branes emerge and punctures with 7-brane monodromy. They describe (p, q) 5-brane junctions with two groups of like-charged external 5-branes that are unconstrained by the s-rule and an additional group of constrained 5-branes. The dual 5d SCFTs include various theories discussed previously in the literature. We match SCFT operators with scaling dimension of \( \mathcal{O} \)(N) with their representation in supergravity to support the proposed dualities.
