"Chiral'' and "Non-chiral'' 3d Seiberg duality

Abstract

We propose a Seiberg duality for a 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ $Spin(7)$ gauge theory with $F$ spinor matters. For $F\ge 6$, the theory allows a magnetic dual description with an $SU(F-4)$ gauge group. The matter content on the magnetic side is ``chiral'' and the duality connects ``chiral'' and ``non-chiral'' 3d gauge theories. As a corollary, we can construct a Seiberg duality for a 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ $G_2$ gauge theory with fundamental matters.
