N2 - We consider supersymmetric SL(3, R)-deformations of various type IIB supergravity backgrounds which exhibit flows away from an asymptotically locally AdS5 × S5 fixed point. This includes the gravity dual of the Coulomb branch of super-Yang-Mills theory, for which the deformed superpotential is known. We also consider the gravity duals of field theories which live on various curved backgrounds, such as Minkowski2 × H2, AdS3 × S1 and R × S 3. Some of the deformed theories flow from a four-dimensional superconformal UV fixed point to a two-dimensional (2, 2) superconformal IR fixed point. We study nonsupersymmetric generalizations of the deformations of the above Coulomb branch flows.
