6d surface defects from massive type IIA

We present a new BPS flow within minimal $\mathcal{N}=1$ supergravity in seven dimensions describing a warped ${\text{AdS}}_3$ background supported by a “dyonic” profile of the three-form. Furthermore, we discuss the holographic interpretation of the above solution in terms of a defect ${\text{SCFT}}_2$ inside the 6d $(1,0)$ theory dual to the AdS in the asymptotic region. Finally we provide the brane picture of the aforementioned defect CFT as D2- and wrapped D4-branes ending on a D6 - NS5 - D8 funnel in massive type IIA string theory.
