Abstract

We show that applying the Bailey lemma to elliptic hypergeometric integrals on the AnA_n root system leads to a large web of dualities for N=1\mathcal{N} = 1 supersymmetric linear quiver theories. The superconformal index of Seiberg's SQCD with SU(Nc)SU(N_c) gauge group and SU(Nf)×SU(Nf)×U(1)SU(N_f)\times SU(N_f)\times U(1) flavour symmetry is equal to that of NfNc1N_f-N_c-1 distinct linear quivers. Seiberg duality further enlarges this web by adding new quivers. In particular, both interacting electric and magnetic theories with arbitrary NcN_c and NfN_f can be constructed by quivering an ss-confining theory with Nf=Nc+1N_f=N_c+1.
