Aspects of N=2 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories in Three Dimensions
read the original abstract
We consider general aspects of N=2 gauge theories in three dimensions, including their multiplet structure, anomalies and non-renormalization theorems. For U(1) gauge theories, we discuss the quantum corrections to the moduli space, and their relation to ``mirror symmetries'' of 3d N=4 theories. Mirror symmetry is given an interpretation in terms of vortices. For SU(N_c) gauge groups with N_f fundamental flavors, we show that, depending on the number of flavors, there are quantum moduli spaces of vacua with various phenomena near the origin.

Universal Planar Abelian Duals for 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ Symplectic CS-SQCD
New dualities are proposed between 3d N=2 USp(2N) CS-SQCD and Abelian planar quivers, obtained via real-mass deformations of N=4 mirrors and supported by matching partition functions, indices, and operator spectra.

Perturbative Coulomb branches on $\mathbb{R}^3\times S^1$: the global D-term potential
A global perturbative potential for the Coulomb branch is derived via zeta regularization of D-terms from KK modes in R^3 x S^1 compactifications of 4d N=1 theories.
