We propose a class of AdS/CFT dual pairs which have small internal dimensions on the gravity side. Starting from known Freund-Rubin AdS/CFT dual pairs, we use 7-branes to nearly cancel the curvature energy of the internal dimensions while maintaining their stabilization. This leads to a new corner of the landscape - a class of AdS solutions with a hierarchically large AdS radius - with a dual field theory given (implicitly) by the infrared limit of a concrete brane construction involving D3-branes, 7-branes, and curvature. We first construct a class of hierarchical AdS5/CFT4 dual pairs with a simple formula for the number of degrees of freedom which we interpret in the dual QFT. We then generalize these to AdS4/CFT3 duals, and suggest extensions of the method to obtain de Sitter solutions.

  1. Towers of Operators in CFTs and Convexity Bounds at Large Charge

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    In 3d CFTs with moduli spaces, the projected large-charge tower obeys the convexity bound α0≤0, while the leading slope α1 has no universal bound besides α1≥0.

  2. Backtracking AdS flux vacua

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Flux backtracking produces candidate brane-probe singularities for AdS flux vacua, including a new strongly coupled massive IIA singularity conjectured to be the brane picture of DGKT.
