Which AdS/CFT correspondences have been found so far?

Question

When I read about AdS/CFT correspondence, there always comes the most famous example of conjectured correspondence, which is the one between type IIB string theory (AdS side) and $\mathcal{N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (CFT). I was wondering, if there were other correspondences that are being conjectured out there, but that maybe do not get so much "mainstream" attention?

As I understand it, the difficulty of finding the correspondences is that often one side can be treated perturbatively, while the other side not. In 2D CFT, I believe there are theories (correct me if I am wrong) that can be solved exactly. Was there any correspondence found there? I also heard about the AdS/CFT being a potential solution to the black hole information paradox. Is something specific conjectured here?

I am looking mostly for a list of the conjectured correspondences, if any, but any detail would be highly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Edit: following the comment below stating that there might be several hundreds such conjectures, let me restrict the question to the most notable AdS/CFT conjectures, with foreseeable applications in any field of physics, such as for example black holes, superconductors, condensed matter, phase transitions, etc.

Probably several hundred such dualities have been conjectured. If you care about work in a particular dimension, you can search for it in arxiv, e.g. "AdS3/CFT2" or "AdS4/CFT3".

@MitchellPorter Thanks for your comment! Oh really, that many? Then let me edit my question to make it a little more specific.

I don't think your question has a definite answer. AdS/CFT is a very, very large area. There are 14680 papers citing Maldacena's original paper as of today. Not only are there tons of conjectured correspondences, but there is a point of view that any quantum gravitational theory in AdS is dual to some CFT on the boundary.

@PeterKravchuk Right, but most of the CFT duals are not known, right? I mean, it seems to me that the systematics of AdS/CFT would be easier to study for theories in lower dimensions with exact known solutions, such as some 2D CFTs for example. Or is the supersymmetry of $\mathcal{N}=4$ making it easier than anything else?

I'm just saying that to my taste your question is very broad, even after the edit:) I'm no expert, but if you are interested in AdS3/CFT2, try looking for D1/D5 system. In general I think that explicit dualities are always supersymmetric. I am not sure if there are exceptions.
