abstract
We consider general aspects of N=2 gauge theories in three dimensions, including their multiplet structure, anomalies and non-renormalization theorems. For U(1) gauge theories, we discuss the quantum corrections to the moduli space, and their relation to ``mirror symmetries'' of 3d N=4 theories. Mirror symmetry is given an interpretation in terms of vortices. For SU(N_c) gauge groups with N_f fundamental flavors, we show that, depending on the number of flavors, there are quantum moduli spaces of vacua with various phenomena near the origin.

Continuous-universe decomposition plus (-1)-form gauging eliminates every instanton in local QFTs, realized explicitly by switching 2D U(1) gauge theories to noncompact R gauge groups.
Conjectures that quantum Coulomb branch algebras of 3D N=4 unitary quiver gauge theories equal truncated shifted quiver Yangians Y(ˆQ, ˆW), verified explicitly for tree-type quivers via monopole actions on 1/2-BPS vortices.
High-temperature limits on higher sheets of the superconformal index for (A1,A2n) Argyres-Douglas theories yield Gang-Kim-Stubbs 3d N=2 theories whose boundaries support Virasoro minimal model VOAs M(2,2n+3) and associated MTCs.
New dualities are proposed between 3d N=2 USp(2N) CS-SQCD and Abelian planar quivers, obtained via real-mass deformations of N=4 mirrors and supported by matching partition functions, indices, and operator spectra.
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.
