Abstract

We present new families of AdS5 solutions in M-theory preserving 4d mathcal{N} = 2 supersymmetry. We perform a systematic analysis of holographic observables for these solutions, providing evidence for an interpretation in terms of 4d superconformal field theories (SCFTs) of Argyres-Douglas type, realized in class mathcal{S} via a sphere with one irregular, and one regular puncture. The gravity solutions exhibit internal M5-brane sources that correspond to the irregular puncture. For a family of solutions, we identify explicitly the class mathcal{S} puncture data and perform a detailed match, including Higgs branch operators. For other families we comment on proposed field theory duals, based on irregular punctures labeled by nested Young tableaux.
