Janus solutions from dyonic ISO(7) maximal gauged supergravity

Abstract We give a large class of new supersymmetric Janus solutions in dyonic ISO(7) maximal gauged supergravity encompassing all known solutions appearing recently. We consider SO(3) invariant sector in which the gauged supergravity admits four supersymmetric AdS4 vacua with N = 1, 1, 2, 3 unbroken supersymmetries and G 2, SU(3), SU(3) × U(1) and SO(4) symmetries, respectively. We find Janus solutions preserving N = 1, 2, 3 supersymmetries and interpolating between AdS4 vacua and the N = 8 SYM phase. These solutions can be interpreted as conformal interfaces between SYM and various conformal phases of the dual field theory in three dimensions. The solutions can also be embedded in massive type IIA theory by a consistent truncation on S 6. We also find a number of singular Janus solutions interpolating between N = 8 SYM or AdS4 vacua and singularities or between singular geometries. It turns out that, apart from the SYM phase on D2-branes, all the singularities arising in these solutions are unphysical in both four- and ten-dimensional frameworks
