Group Theory and the CFT Distance Conjecture: Tensionless Strings Have No (Co)Weight
Florent Baume, Fabio Mantegazza
We perform a systematic survey of the Hagedorn behaviour at infinite-distance points in the conformal manifold of four-dimensional large- Superconformal Field Th…
Multiplet Recombination and the CFT Distance Conjecture
Fabio Mantegazza, Enrico Marchetto, Elli Pomoni +2
Motivated by quantum gravity and the CFT Distance Conjecture, we study infinite-distance limits in four-dimensional superconformal field theories with higher-dimension…
A - BCD dualities
Antonio Amariti, Fabio Mantegazza, Simone Rota +1
In this paper we propose 4d and 3d dualities among special unitary gauge theories with fundamentals and antisymmetric flavors and symplectic or orthogonal gauge theories with funda…
Rank-two tensors and deconfinement in 3d gauge theories
Antonio Amariti, Fabio Mantegazza, Simone Rota
In this paper we study the IR dynamics of gauge theories with four supercharges in 3d in presence of symmetric or antisymmetric tensor. Using the tensor deconfinement techn…
Dualities from dualities in 2d
Antonio Amariti, Pietro Glorioso, Fabio Mantegazza +2
We propose 2d dualities between SU(N) gauge theories with fundamental and antisymmetric chiral matter and Landau-Ginzburg theories with chiral and Fermi multipl…
Confinement for 3d with a Symmetric tensor
Antonio Amariti, Fabio Mantegazza
In this paper we study 3d confining gauge theories with a matter field in the rank-two index symmetric representation. The models found here are obtained fr…
A new 4d duality from the superconformal index
Antonio Amariti, Fabio Mantegazza
In this paper we propose a physical derivation of a 4d conjectural duality for with an anti-symmetric rank-two tensor and fundamental flavors, in presence of a non-trivia…
Sporadic dualities from tensor deconfinement
Antonio Amariti, Fabio Mantegazza, Davide Morgante
In this paper we give a field theory explanation of two confining dualities that have been proposed in the literature based on exact results from supersymmetric localization. The f…
