We study the interplay between mass deformations and unoriented projections of super-conformal quiver gauge theories resulting from D3-branes at (toric) Calabi-Yau singularities. We focus on simple orbifold cases (ℂ3/ℤ3 and ℂ3/ℤ4) and their non-orbifold descendants. This allows us to generalize the construction rules and clarify points that have been previously overlooked. In particular we spell out the conditions of anomaly cancellations as well as super-conformal invariance that typically require the introduction of flavour branes, which in turn may spoil toric symmetry. Finally, we discuss duality cascades in this context and the interplay between Seiberg/toric duality and unoriented projection with (or without) mass deformations.

Abstract
We study the interplay between mass deformations and unoriented projections of super-conformal quiver gauge theories resulting from D3-branes at (toric) Calabi-Yau singularities. We focus on simple orbifold cases (ℂ3/ℤ3 and ℂ3/ℤ4) and their non-orbifold descendants. This allows us to generalize the construction rules and clarify points that have been previously overlooked. In particular we spell out the conditions of anomaly cancellations as well as super-conformal invariance that typically require the introduction of flavour branes, which in turn may spoil toric symmetry. Finally, we discuss duality cascades in this context and the interplay between Seiberg/toric duality and unoriented projection with (or without) mass deformations.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
