New holographic theories from n=2 minimal models

We explore the moduli space of the N-fold symmetric orbifold of N = 2 minimal models at large N and find evidence that there is a supergravity point. In particular, we show that their elliptic genus exhibits slow growth consistent with a supergravity spectrum in AdS3. We also identify single-trace exactly marginal operators that deform the theory away from the symmetric orbifold locus. We thus propose an infinite family of new holographic CFTs.
