More on N=1 Self-Dualities and Exceptional Gauge Groups

TL;DR

This paper develops a criterion for identifying self-dual models and constructs new self-dual pairs, especially involving exceptional gauge groups, advancing understanding of N=1 self-dualities in gauge theories.

Contribution

It introduces a systematic criterion for self-duality and constructs new examples with exceptional gauge groups, expanding the landscape of known self-dual models.

Findings

Established a criterion for self-duality in gauge models

Constructed new self-dual pairs with exceptional gauge groups

Enhanced understanding of N=1 self-dualities

Abstract

Starting from a generalization of a recent result on self-duality we systematically analyze self-dual models. We find a criterion to judge whether a given model is self-dual or not. With this tool we construct some new self-dual pairs, focussing on examples with exceptional gauge groups.
