We study three dimensional gauge theories with N=2 supersymmetry. We show that the Coulomb branches of such theories may be rendered compact by the dynamical generation of Chern-Simons terms and present a new class of mirror symmetric theories in which both Coulomb and Higgs branches have a natural description in terms of toric geometry.

  1. Perturbative Coulomb branches on $\mathbb{R}^3\times S^1$: the global D-term potential

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    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.
