Messages for QCD from the Superworld [PDF]
Recent discoveries in supersymmetric gauge theories have significant implications for our understanding for QCD and of field theory in general. The phases of N=1 supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) are discussed, and the possibility of similar phases in non ...

A tale of exceptional 3d dualities
We consider interesting Seiberg dualities for Usp gauge theories with an antisymmetric, 8 fundamentals and no superpotential. We reduce to three dimensions and systematically analyze deformations triggered by real and complex masses, reaching a plethora ...

“Chiral” and “non-chiral” 3d Seiberg duality
We propose a Seiberg duality for a 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 Spin (7) gauge theory with F spinor matters. For F ≥ 6, the theory allows a magnetic dual description with an SU(F −4) gauge group.

Duality from Topological Symmetry [PDF]
We describe topological gauge theories for which duality properties are encoded by construction. We study them for compact manifolds of dimensions four, eight and two.

N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 QED in 2 + 1 dimensions: dualities and enhanced symmetries
We consider three-dimensional sQED with 2 flavors and minimal supersymmetry. We discuss various models which are dual to Gross-Neveu-Yukawa theories. The U(2) ultraviolet global symmetry is often enhanced in the infrared, for instance to O(4) or SU(3 ...

Noncommutative supergeometry, duality and deformations [PDF]
We introduce a notion of $Q$-algebra that can be considered as a generalization of the notion of $Q$-manifold (a supermanifold equipped with an odd vector field obeying $\{Q,Q\} =0$).

T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ -like flows in non-linear electrodynamic theories and S-duality
We investigate the T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ -like flows for non-linear electrodynamic theories in D(=2n)-dimensional spacetime. Our analysis is restricted to the deformation problem of the classical free action by employing the proposed T T ¯ $$ T ...

Topologically Massive Gauge Theories and their Dual Factorised Gauge Invariant Formulation [PDF]
There exists a well-known duality between the Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory and the self-dual massive model in 2+1 dimensions. This dual description has been extended to topologically massive gauge theories (TMGT) in any dimension.

Dipoles, Twists and Noncommutative Gauge Theory [PDF]
T-duality of gauge theories on a noncommutative $T^d$ can be extended to include fields with twisted boundary conditions. The resulting T-dual theories contain novel nonlocal fields. These fields represent dipoles of constant magnitude.

Dualities of corner configurations and supersymmetric indices
We compute supersymmetric indices which count local operators at certain half-BPS interfaces and quarter-BPS junctions of interfaces in four-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 Super Yang-Mills theory.
