Duality and Non-Commutative Gauge Theory
We study the generalization of S-duality to non-commutative gauge theories. For rank one theories, we obtain the leading terms of the dual theory by Legendre transforming the Lagrangian of the non-commutative theory expressed in terms of a commutative ...

Higgsing and twisting of 6d D N gauge theories
We propose Type IIB 5-brane configurations that engineer the 6d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (1, 0) SCFTs with SO(N) gauge symmetry coupled to a single tensor multiplet on a circle, by considering RG flows on Higgs branches of D-type conformal matter theories ...

Electric-Magnetic Duality of Topological Gauge Theories from Compactification [PDF]
In this note, we discuss electric-magnetic duality between a pair of 4d topological field theories (TQFTs) by considering their compactifications to 2 dimensions.

Mirror Symmetry in Three Dimensional Gauge Theories
We discuss non-trivial fixed points of the renormalization group with dual descriptions in $N=4$ gauge theories in three dimensions. This new duality acts as mirror symmetry, exchanging the Higgs and Coulomb branches of the theories.

The Plane-Wave/Super Yang-Mills Duality
We present a self-contained review of the Plane-wave/super-Yang-Mills duality, which states that strings on a plane-wave background are dual to a particular large R-charge sector of N=4, D=4 superconformal U(N) gauge theory.

Large N Reductions and Holography
The large $N$ reductions in gauge theories are identified with dimensional reductions with homogeneous distribution of the eigenvalues of the gauge field, and it is used to identify the corresponding closed string descriptions in the Maldacena duality ...

An N=1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ 3d-3d correspondence
M5-branes on an associative three-cycle M 3 in a G 2-holonomy manifold give rise to a 3d N=1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supersymmetric gauge theory, TN=1M3 $$ {T}_{\mathcal{N}=1}\left[{M}_3\right] $$.

Detachable circles and temperature-inversion dualities for CFT$_d$
We use a Weyl transformation between $S^1 \times S^{d-1}$ and $S^1 \times \mathcal{H}^{d-1}/\mathbb{Z}$ to relate a conformal field theory at arbitrary temperature on $S^{d-1}$ to itself at the inverse temperature on $\mathcal{H}^{d-1}/\mathbb{Z}$.

A Diagramatic Analysis of Duality in Supersymmetric Gauge Theories
We introduce a diagramatic notation for supersymmetric gauge theories. The notation is a tool for exploring duality and helps to present the field content of more complicated models in a simple visual way.

Phases of ${\cal N}=1$ Theories in 2+1 Dimensions
We study the dynamics of 2+1 dimensional theories with ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetry. In these theories the supersymmetric ground states behave discontinuously at co-dimension one walls in the space of couplings, with new vacua coming in from infinity in ...
