High Energy Physics - Theory 2019-06-26 v1

Abstract

We study the low-energy dynamics in three-dimensional N=2\mathcal{N}=2 exceptional gauge theories with matters in a fundamental representation, especially focusing on confinement phases and on a quantum structure of the Coulomb branch in the moduli space of vacua. We argue that the confinement phases of these exceptional gauge theories have a single Coulomb branch. The 3d s-confinement phases for the exceptional gauge groups are associated with quantum-deformed moduli spaces of the corresponding 4d N=1\mathcal{N}=1 exceptional gauge theories.
