R-Twisting, Fibered Knots, and Gauge Theories
Shi Cheng
We argue that R-twisting implies the Seiberg-Witten curves of 4d Argyres-Douglas theories could be combined with the R-twisted circle to form the mapping tori of torus knots, inspi…

3d theories and plumbing graphs: adding matter, gauging, and new dualities
Shi Cheng, Piotr Sułkowski
Recently, a large class of 3d gauge theories with mixed Chern-Simons levels, corresponding to plumbing 3-manifolds, has been identified. In this paper we generali…

Mirror Symmetry and Mixed Chern-Simons Levels for Abelian 3d theories
Shi Cheng
We study the mirror symmetry of abelian 3d theories with mixed Chern-Simons levels by turning them into theories that are defined as copies…
