We present an explicit expression for the grand potential of the U(N)^3 superconformal Chern-Simons theory with the Chern-Simons levels being (k,0,-k). From the viewpoint of the Newton polygon, it is expected that the grand potential is given by the free energy of the topological string theory on the local D_5 del Pezzo geometry, though the explicit identification was a puzzle for years. We show how the expectation is realized explicitly. As a bonus, we can also study the Z_2 orbifold of this theory and find the grand potential is now given in terms of the local E_7 del Pezzo geometry.

  1. Factorized Quantum Curves and Minuscule Vertices in 3D Duality Cascades with FI Parameters

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Vertices of fundamental domains for del Pezzo quantum curves with FI parameters are realized as factorized curves from 5-branes dressed by FI parameters, matching minuscule weights.

  2. Finiteness and Uniqueness of Duality Cascades in Three Dimensions for Affine Quivers

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For affine D and E quiver Chern-Simons theories, duality cascades terminate uniquely only under large-rank restrictions because the associated polytope tiles the parameter space with gaps.
