N = 3 SCFTs in 4 dimensions and non-simply laced groups
Abstract
In this paper we discuss various SCFTs in 4 dimensions and in particular those which can be obtained as a discrete gauging of an SYM theories with non-simply laced groups. The main goal of the project was to compute the Coulomb branch superconformal index and Higgs branch Hilbert series for the SCFTs that are obtained from gauging a discrete subgroup of the global symmetry group of Super Yang-Mills theory. The discrete subgroup contains elements of both R-symmetry group and the S-duality group of SYM. This computation was done for the simply laced groups (where the S-duality groups is and Langlands dual of the the algebra is simply ) by Bourton et al. arXiv:1804.05396, and we extended it to the non-simply laced groups. We also considered the orbifolding groups of the Coulomb branch for the cases when Coulomb branch is relatively simple; in particular, we compared them with the results of Argyres et al. arXiv:1904.10969, who classified all moduli space orbifold geometries at rank 2 and with the results of Bonetti et al. arXiv:1810.03612, who listed all possible orbifolding groups for the freely generated Coulomb branches of SCFTs. Finally, we have considered sporadic complex crystallographic reflection groups with rank greater than 2 and analyzed, which of them can correspond to an SCFT.
