We derive a general formula of an index for three dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories with general R-charge assignments to chiral multiplets by using the localization method in S^2xS^1 background. As examples we compute the index for theories in a few mirror pairs, and confirm the agreement of the indices in each mirror pair.

  1. Refined 3D index

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    A refined 3D index is defined by adding flavor symmetry gradings to the superconformal index of T[M], yielding an explicit infinite-sum formula from Dehn surgery that is claimed to be a strictly stronger invariant tha...

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Finite-N indices for M5- and M2-branes are expressed via the same equivariant characteristic classes, generalizing M2/M5 duality through geometry exchange.

    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.
