This duality can be obtained in a straightforward manner by gauging the topological symmetry of theU(2N) theory [35], which on the mirror side corresponds to gauging one of the twoU(1) flavor symmetries. This case is particularly rich, as the chiral ring is generated by a larger class of op- erators, including composite mesons of the form ˜λ Q Q, baryonic operatorsQ 2N, and the operator ˜λN.
