Abstract: Type IIB supergravity admits Janus and multi-Janus solutions with eight unbroken supersymmetries that are locally asymptotic to AdS 3 × S 3 × M 4 (where M 4 is either T 4 or K 3). These solutions are dual to two or more CFTs defined on half-planes which share a common line interface. Their geometry consists of an AdS 2 × S 2 × M 4 fibration over a simply connected Riemann surface Σ with boundary. In the present paper, we show that regular exact solutions exist also for surfaces Σ which are not simply connected. Specifically, we construct in detail solutions for which Σ has the topology of an annulus. This construction is generalized to produce solutions for any surface Σ with the topology of an open string worldsheet with g holes.
