On the 3d compactifications of 5d SCFTs associated with SU(N+1) gauge theories

Abstract

We study the $3d$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories resulting from the compactification of a family of $5d$ SCFTs on a torus with flux in the global symmetry. The family of $5d$ SCFTs used in the analysis is the one that UV completes the $5d$ $SU(N+1)$ gauge theories with Chern--Simons level $k$ and $N_f$ fundamental hypermultiplets, generalizing the previous investigation of the torus compactifications of the rank 1 Seiberg $E_{N_f+1}$ SCFT (which is the $N=1$ member of the family). This construction systematically yields three-dimensional theories presenting highly non-trivial non-perturbative phenomena such as infra-red dualities and enhanced symmetries, which we check using various methods.
