TL;DR

This paper derives mirror dual descriptions for 3d $ abla=2$ SQCD with unitary, orthogonal, and symplectic gauge groups using a recent duality, matching chiral rings and partition functions.

Contribution

It generalizes known mirror duals of abelian theories to non-abelian gauge groups and conjectures new dualities for orthogonal and symplectic cases.

Findings

Derived mirror duals for non-abelian 3d $ abla=2$ SQCD

Matched chiral rings between dual theories

Confirmed dualities via partition function comparisons

Abstract

Using a recently proposed duality for $U(N)$ supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) in three dimensions with monopole superpotential, in this paper we derive the mirror dual description of $\mathcal{N}=2$ SQCD with unitary gauge group, generalizing the known mirror dual description of abelian gauge theories. We match the chiral ring of the dual theories and their partition functions on the squashed sphere. We also conjecture a generalization for SQCD with orthogonal and symplectic gauge groups.
