Title: New holographic CFTs: finding the needle in the haystack

Abstract: In this talk, I will give evidence for a new infinite family of holographic CFTs in d=2. These are chaotic CFTs with a large central charge and a large gap to higher spin operators. The theories are obtained by taking the symmetric orbifold of any N=(2,2) minimal model and deforming away from the orbifold point. I will show that exactly marginal operators that enable the turning on of this coupling always exist, and that the BPS spectrum of these theories exhibits a slow growth compatible with a supergravity spectrum in AdS_3. Based on the paper https://arxiv.org/abs/2002.07819.
