Abstract
The supergravity dual of the superconformal anomaly multiplet in a four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory is investigated. We consider a well-established dual correspondence between an [Formula: see text]SU(N+M) × SU(N) supersymmetric gauge theory and type IIB superstring in a space–time background described by the Klebanov–Strassler solution. Based on the fact that fractional D3-branes lead to superconformal anomaly on the field theory side and in the meantime deform AdS 5 × T1, 1 space–time background on the gravity side, we observe the five-dimensional gauged supergravity yielded from the spontaneous compactification on the deformed T1, 1, and find that the spontaneous breaking of local symmetries and the consequent super-Higgs effect in the gauged AdS5 supergravity should be the dual of the superconformal anomaly of the four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theory.
