Abstract
We investigate the existence of solutions with 16 supersymmetries to Type IIB supergravity on a spacetime of the form AdS2 × S5 × S1 warped over a two-dimensional Riemann surface Σ. The existence of the Lie superalgebra SU(1, 1|4) ⊂ PSU(2, 2|4), whose maximal bosonic subalgebra is SO(1, 2)⊕SO(6)⊕SO(2), motivates the search for half-BPS solutions with this isometry that are asymptotic to AdS5×S5. We reduce the BPS equations to the Ansatz for the bosonic fields and supersymmetry generators compatible with these symmetries, then show that the only non-trivial solution is the maximally supersymmetric solution AdS5 × S5. We argue that this implies that no solutions exist for fully back-reacted D7 probe or D7/D3 intersecting branes whose near-horizon limit is of the form AdS2 × S5 × S1 × Σ.
