This is the first of a series of papers in which we systematically use singularity theory to study four dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories. Our main focus in this paper is to identify what kind of singularity is needed to define…
We describe a web of well-known dualities connecting quantum field theories in $d=1+1$ dimensions. The web is constructed by gauging ${\bf Z}_2$ global symmetries and includes a number of perennial favourites such as the Jordan-Wigner…
We study a set of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) $\widehat{\Gamma}(G)$ labeled by a pair of simply-laced Lie groups $\Gamma$ and $G$. They are constructed out of gauging a number of $\mathcal{D}_p(G)$…
Starting from the Seiberg-Witten solution of N=2 SQCD with the U(N) gauge group and N_f quark flavors we construct the so-called \mu-dual N=1 theory in the r vacua in the regime analogous to that existing to the left of the left edge of the…
We work out Seiberg-like dualities for 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories with SU(N) gauge group. We use the $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ action on 3d conformal field theories with U(1) global symmetry. One of generator S of $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ acts as…
We apply a variety of machine learning methods to the study of Seiberg duality within 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ quantum field theories arising on the worldvolumes of D3-branes probing toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds. Such theories admit an elegant…
Enhancement of global symmetry and supersymmetry in the infrared is one of the most intriguing phenomena in quantum field theory. We investigate such phenomena in a large class of three dimensional superconformal field theories, known as…
It is believed that the two-dimensional massless $\mathcal{N}=2$ Wess--Zumino model becomes the $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theory (SCFT) in the infrared (IR) limit. We examine this theoretical conjecture of the Landau--Ginzburg…
We study the $3d$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories resulting from the compactification of a family of $5d$ SCFTs on a torus with flux in the global symmetry. The family of $5d$ SCFTs used in the analysis is the one that UV completes the $5d$…
A new universal model to implement the Seiberg-Witten approach to low-energy properties of the supersymmetric N=2 gauge theory with an arbitrary compact simple gauge group, classical or exceptional, is suggested. It is based on the…
We introduce a family of dualities between certain non-supersymmetric self-dual gauge theories on a large class of $4d$ self-dual asymptotically flat backgrounds, and the large $N$ limit of an independently defined $2d$ chiral defect CFT.…
We define the notion of a complete N=2 supersymmetric theory in 4 dimensions as a UV complete theory for which all the BPS central charges can be arbitrarily varied as we vary its Coulomb branch parameters, masses, and coupling constants.…
We present a new duality between the F-terms of supersymmetric field theories defined in two- and four-dimensions respectively. The duality relates N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions, deformed by an Omega-background in one…
We systematically explore the space of renormalization group flows of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) triggered by relevant deformations, as well as by coupling to free chiral multiplets with relevant…
A well-developed classification program for 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ super conformal field theories (SCFTs) leverages Seiberg-Witten geometry on the Coulomb branch of vacua; theories are arranged by increasing $\mathfrak{rank}$, the complex…
Making use of the exact solutions of the $N=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories we construct new classes of superconformal field theories (SCFTs) by fine-tuning the moduli parameters and bringing the theories to critical points. SCFTs we have…
Cluster coordinates for a large class of Argyres-Douglas and asymptotical free theories are constructed using network on bordered Riemann surface. Such N = 2 theories are engineered using six dimensional (2, 0) theory on Riemann surface…
We study compactifications on Riemann surfaces with punctures of N=(1,0) 6d SCFTs with a one dimensional tensor branch and no continuous global symmetries. The effective description of such models on the tensor branch is in terms of pure…
There exist 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs in class $\mathcal{S}$ which have different constructions as punctured Riemann surfaces, but which nevertheless appear to describe the same physics. Some of these class $\mathcal{S}$ theories have an…
We study 4d SCFTs obtained by orientifold projections on necklace quivers with fractional branes. The models obtained by this procedure are $\mathcal{N}=1$ linear quivers with unitary, symplectic and orthogonal gauge groups, bifundamental…
