abstract

We study $N=1$ supersymmetric $SP(N_c)$ gauge theories with $N_f$ flavors of quarks in the fundamental representation. Depending on $N_f$ and $N_c$, we find exact, dynamically generated superpotentials, smooth quantum moduli spaces of vacua, quantum moduli spaces of vacua with additional massless composites at strong coupling, confinement without chiral symmetry breaking, non-trivial fixed points of the renormalization group, and massless magnetic quarks and gluons.

  1. Interior zeros of supersymmetric indices

    hep-th 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    Interior zeros of a supersymmetric index exist iff its arithmetic coefficients δ(ν) grow exponentially at rate set by the nearest zero, detectable from finitely many q-series terms.

  2. Overlooking 3d dualities from mezzanines and balconies

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    New 3d dualities are obtained by T-duality reduction of 4d mezzanine and balcony models, with partition function matching after double scaling limit and a proof of required confining dualities via tensor deconfinement.

  3. Six Easy Pieces: interplays among dualities in 4d, 3d and 2d

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Baryon-deformed SU(N) gauge theory with an antisymmetric tensor is shown to flow to a free magnetic phase, and its reductions yield new 3d SU/SO and 2d SU/USp dualities.

  4. Supersymmetric zeta functions and determinants

    hep-th 2025-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Residues and special values of supersymmetric zeta functions (built from single-particle indices) are conjectured to reproduce anomaly coefficients, Casimir energies, and central charges across 2d/4d/6d.

  5. How to Falsify String Theory at a Collider

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Detection of an isolated SU(2)_L n-plet with n≥5 would falsify known string constructions; current LHC limits exclude such states up to 400-735 GeV depending on n.
