Abstract

Recently a very interesting three-dimensional N=2\mathcal{N}=2 supersymmetric theory with SU(3)SU(3) global symmetry was discussed by several authors. We denote this model by TxT_x. This was conjectured to have two dual descriptions, one with explicit supersymmetry and emergent flavor symmetry and the other with explicit flavor symmetry and emergent supersymmetry. We discuss a third description of the model which has both flavor symmetry and supersymmetry manifest. We then investigate models which can be constructed by using TxT_x as a building block gauging the global symmetry and paying special attention to the global structure of the gauge group. We conjecture several cases of N=2\mathcal{N}=2 mirror dualities involving such constructions with the dual being either a simple N=2\mathcal{N}=2 Wess-Zumino model or a discrete gauging thereof.
