Discrete gauging in Coulomb branches of three dimensional N=4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ supersymmetric gauge theories
Abstract This paper tests a conjecture on discrete non-Abelian gauging of 3d N=4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ supersymmetric quiver gauge theories. Given a parent quiver with a bouquet of n nodes of rank 1, invariant under a discrete S n global symmetry, one can construct a daughter quiver where the bouquet...

Abstract This paper tests a conjecture on discrete non-Abelian gauging of 3d N=4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ supersymmetric quiver gauge theories. Given a parent quiver with a bouquet of n nodes of rank 1, invariant under a discrete S n global symmetry, one can construct a daughter quiver where the bouquet is substituted by a single adjoint n node. Based on the main conjecture in this paper, the daughter quiver corresponds to a theory where the S n discrete global symmetry is gauged and the new Coulomb branch is a non-Abelian orbifold of the parent Coulomb branch. We demonstrate and test the conjecture for three simply laced families of bouquet quivers and a non-simply laced bouquet quiver with C 2 factor in the global symmetry. |
