3d “chiral” Kutasov-Schwimmer duality
We propose a “chiral” version of Kutasov-Schwimmer duality in a 3d N=2 SU(N) gauge theory with F fundamental matters, F¯ anti-fundamental matters and an adjoint matter X with a tree-level superpotential W=trXk+1. The theory exhibits a rich structure of the baryonic and (dressed) Coulomb branch opera...

| Summary: | We propose a “chiral” version of Kutasov-Schwimmer duality in a 3d N=2 SU(N) gauge theory with F fundamental matters, F¯ anti-fundamental matters and an adjoint matter X with a tree-level superpotential W=trXk+1. The theory exhibits a rich structure of the baryonic and (dressed) Coulomb branch operators. At first sight, the duality seems incorrect due to a mismatch of the anti-baryonic branch of the moduli space under the duality transformation. The duality well works by realizing that the anti-baryonic operators are identified with some of the dressed Coulomb branch corresponding to non-abelian monopoles. This generalizes the SU(N) “chiral” duality with (anti-)fundamental matters, which we previously proposed. |
