A string theory realization of special unitary quivers in 3 dimensions

Abstract We propose a string theory realization of three-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 quiver gauge theories with special unitary gauge groups. This is most easily understood in type IIA string theory with D4-branes wrapped on holomorphic curves in local K3’s, by invoking the Stückelberg mecha...
