Abstract: In this paper, we propose a generalization of the $mathrmAd{S}_2/CF{T}_1$ correspondence constructed by Mezei, Pufu and Wang in cite{MezeiPufuWang}, which is the duality between 2d Yang-Mills theory with higher derivatives in the $mathrm{AdS}_2$ background, and 1d topological quantum mechanics of two adjoint and two fundamental $mathrmU(N)$ fields, governing certain protected sector of operators in 3d ABJM theory at the Chern-Simons level $k=1$. We construct a holographic dual to a flavored generalization of the 1d quantum mechanics considered in cite{MezeiPufuWang}, which arises as the effective field theory living on the intersection of stacks of $N$ D2-branes and $k$ D6-branes in the $Omega$-background in Type IIA string theory, and describes the dynamics of the protected sector of operators in $mathcalN=4$ theory with $k$ fundamental hypermultiplets, having a holographic description as M-theory in the $mathrm{AdS}_{4}imesmathrm{S}^7/mathbb{Z}_k$ background. We compute the structure constants of the bulk theory gauge group, and construct a map between the observables of the boundary theory and the fields of the bulk theory.
