We propose a general strategy to build three-dimensional gauge theories with four supercharges which enjoy a supersymmetry enhancement in the IR. The resulting IR SCFTs admit topological twists with particularly nice properties, as well as boundary rational chiral algebras such that the associated Modular Tensor Categories are controlled by the topological twist. The theories arise from a twisted circle compactification of four-dimensional theories of Argyres-Douglas type. We develop a novel algorithm to compute or manipulate protected quantities associated to these theories, such as ellipsoid partition functions and superconformal indices and half-indices.

  1. 3d $\mathcal N=4$ rank-zero mirror symmetry, TQFT interfaces, and Zagier duality of Nahm sums

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Zagier duality between the (E8,T1) and (T1,E8) Nahm systems is realized as 3d N=4 rank-zero mirror symmetry of two U(1)^8 Chern-Simons matter theories, with the duality interface generating the level-one E8 character.

  2. Symplectic Chern-Simons theories dual to Abelian rank-$0$ theories

    hep-th 2026-09 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A conjectured exact infrared duality links USp(2n) Chern-Simons matter theories with one fundamental chiral to Abelian rank-0 theories T_{ell,n}, supported by matching vacuum counts and indices in several cases.

  3. 3d $\mathcal{N}=$ 4 rank-0 SCFT from punctured lens space

    hep-th 2026-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The Gang-Kim-Stubbs rank-0 SCFT is derived from the Dimofte-Gaiotto-Gukov construction on a punctured lens space, and a new family of theories plus a self-mirror conjecture are proposed from other lens spaces.

  4. Three-dimensional TQFTs from Argyres--Douglas theories via the 3d/3d correspondence

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The twisted circle reduction of the (A1,A2n) Argyres-Douglas theory is realized as a DGG abelian Chern-Simons-matter theory on the lens space L(2n+3,2k), with maximal (one-less-than-maximal) monopole superpotential fl...

  5. R-Twisting, Fibered Knots, and Gauge Theories

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    R-twisting scales the R-symmetry circle angle by mn/(m+n), turning Argyres–Douglas Seiberg–Witten curves into mapping tori of (m,n) torus knots that label 3d gauge theories.

  6. Supersymmetric zeta functions and determinants

    hep-th 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Residues and special values of supersymmetric zeta functions (built from single-particle indices) are conjectured to reproduce anomaly coefficients, Casimir energies, and central charges across 2d/4d/6d.

  7. Generalized Schur partition functions and RG flows

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The generalized Schur partition function of SU(2) N_f=4 SQCD, evaluated at alpha = h^vee_g / 6, reproduces the Schur indices of every SCFT in the Deligne-Cvitanovic rank-one series.

  8. Wild wall-crossing and symmetric quivers in 4d and 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ field theories

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The paper derives a tree-of-unlinkings formula for wild Donaldson-Thomas invariants of m-Kronecker quivers from wall-crossing identities rewritten through symmetric quivers and diagonalization.

  9. A Bound on 3d Mirror Pairs

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    New 3d mirror pairs are proposed for ABCD-type quivers with mixed U/SU nodes, and it is conjectured that unitary quivers containing exceptional affine Dynkin subquivers have no Lagrangian quiver mirror.

  10. An exceptionally simple family of Orthosymplectic 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ rank-0 SCFTs

    hep-th 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A new family of 3d N=4 orthosymplectic quiver theories has trivial Higgs branches and non-trivial Coulomb branches; the smallest full moduli space is two copies of the one-F4 instanton moduli space.

  11. SCFT/VOA correspondence and R-twisted reductions of $(A_2,D_{3n-2})$ Argyres--Douglas theories

    hep-th 2026-09 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For every n ≥ 2, the paper claims the Schur index of the (A_2, D_{3n-2}) Argyres-Douglas theory equals the vacuum supercharacter of the logarithmic doublet algebra A(4n-2), and builds 3d abelian Chern-Simons matter de...
