Seiberg Duality in Chern-Simons Theories with Fundamental and Adjoint Matter

High Energy Physics - Theory 2014-11-18 v2

Abstract

We explore the dynamics of three-dimensional Chern-Simons gauge theories with N=2 supersymmetry and matter in the fundamental and adjoint representations of the gauge group. Realizing the gauge theories of interest in a setup of threebranes and fivebranes in type IIB string theory we argue for a Seiberg duality that relates Chern-Simons theories with non-trivial superpotentials.
