We study a class of two-dimensional ${\cal N}=(0, 4)$ quiver gauge theories that flow to superconformal field theories. We find dualities for the superconformal field theories similar to the 4d ${\cal N}=2$ theories of class ${\cal S}$,…

We study ${\cal N}=2$ Chern-Simons-matter theories with gauge group $U_{k_1}(1)\times U_{k_2}(1)$. We find that, when $k_1+k_2=0$, the partition function computed by localization dramatically simplifies and collapses to a single term. We…

We construct several examples of (2+1) dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons theories, whose moduli space is given by non-compact toric Calabi-Yau four-folds, which are not derivable from any (3+1) dimensional CFT. One such example is…

We explore self-dual Chern-Simons Higgs systems with the local $SU(3)$ and global $U(1)$ symmetries where the matter field lies in the adjoint representation. We show that there are three degenerate vacua of different symmetries and study…

We consider D=3 supersymmetric Chern-Simons gauge theories both from the point of view of their formal structure and of their applications to the $\mathrm{AdS_4/CFT_3}$ correspondence. From the structural view-point, we use the new…

We study 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ Chern--Simons matter theories describing the R-twisted $S^1$-reduction of Argyres--Douglas theories of $(A_{M-1},A_{N-1})$ type with $\text{gcd}(M,N)=1$, via a recently-proposed 4d/3d correspondence. In…

We discuss a number of exact results in N=1 supersymmetric field theories. We review the results obtained by Seiberg in Super-Yang-Mills (SYM) theories with matter in fundamental representation. We then consider Kutasov-type SYM theories,…

We study the mirror symmetry of abelian 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories with mixed Chern-Simons levels by turning them into $\mathcal{T}_{A,N}$ theories that are defined as $N$ copies of $U(1)-[1]$ theory coupled together by mixed Chern-Simons…

We study the algebra of BPS Wilson loops in 3d gauge theories with N=2 supersymmetry and Chern-Simons terms. We argue that new relations appear on the quantum level, and that in many cases this makes the algebra finite-dimensional. We use…

We provide evidence for a duality between color and kinematics in three-dimensional supersymmetric Chern-Simons matter theories. We show that the six-point amplitude in the maximally supersymmetric, N=8, theory can be arranged so that the…

We study the bosonization of massless fermions in three-dimensional space-time. Using the path-integral approach as well as the operator formalism, we investigate new duality relations between fermionic and bosonic theories. In particular,…

We introduce a new duality for $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric gauged matrix models. This $0d$ duality is an order 4 symmetry, namely an equivalence between four different theories, hence we call it Quadrality. Our proposal is motivated by…
