Abstract
We point out that the moduli spaces of all known 3d 8 and 6 SCFTs, after suitable gaugings of finite symmetry groups, have the form where is a real or complex reflection group depending on whether the theory is 8 or 6, respectively. Real reflection groups are either dihedral groups, Weyl groups, or two sporadic cases . Since the BLG theories and the maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories correspond to dihedral and Weyl groups, it is strongly suggested that there are two yet-to-be-discovered 3d 8 theories for . We also show that all known 6 theories correspond to complex reflection groups collectively known as . Along the way, we demonstrate that two ABJM theories and are actually equivalent.
