Abstract
We study 3d Chern--Simons matter theories describing the R-twisted -reduction of Argyres--Douglas theories of type with , via a recently-proposed 4d/3d correspondence. In particular, for the and theories, we identify a series of Chern--Simons matter theories with monopole superpotentials consistent with an supersymmetry enhancement in the infrared. As a by-product, we also find a novel Nahm sum formula for the vacuum character of minimal model, from which we find another Chern--Simons matter theory describing the R-twisted -reduction of the theory.
