abstract

We study 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SQCD with symplectic and orthogonal gauge groups and adjoint matter. For $USp(2n)$ with two fundamentals and $SO(N)$ with one vector these models have been recently shown to s-confine. Here we corroborate the validity of this proposal by relating it to the confinement of $USp(2n)$ with four fundamentals and an antisymmetric tensor, using exact mathematical results coming from the analysis of the partition function on the squashed three-sphere. Our analysis allows us to conjecture new s-confining theories for a higher number of fundamentals and vectors, in presence of linear monopole superpotentials. We then prove the new dualities through a chain of adjoint deconfinements and s-confining dualities.

  1. Rank-two tensors and deconfinement in 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ $SU(N)$ gauge theories

    hep-th 2025-04 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The authors derive confining dualities for 3d SU(N) theories with two antisymmetric tensors (nf+na=4) and for symmetric-tensor theories with monopole superpotentials, using tensor deconfinement and duplication identities.

  2. Boundary lines and Askey-Wilson type moments

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Wilson line defect half-indices for 3d N=2 theories with confining boundaries are exactly Askey-Wilson type moments, obtained via dual vortex defects and effective spin shifts in the index computation.

  3. Six Easy Pieces: interplays among dualities in 4d, 3d and 2d

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Baryon-deformed SU(N) gauge theory with an antisymmetric tensor is shown to flow to a free magnetic phase, and its reductions yield new 3d SU/SO and 2d SU/USp dualities.
