We provide a brief introduction to the ABJM theory, the level kU(N) × U(N) superconformal Chern-Simons matter theory which has been conjectured to describe N coincident M2 -branes. We discuss its dual formulation in terms of M -theory on AdS4 × S7/ℤk and review some of the evidence in favor of the conjecture. We end with a brief discussion of the important role played by the monopole operators.

Abstract We use localization techniques to study several duality proposals for supersymmetric gauge theories in three dimensions reminiscent of Seiberg duality. We compare the partition functions of dual theories deformed by real mass terms and FI parameters. We find that Seiberg-like duality for $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 3 Chern-Simons gauge theories proposed by Giveon and Kutasov holds on the level of partition functions and is closely related to level-rank duality in pure Chern-Simons theory. We also clarify the relationship between the Giveon-Kutasov duality and a duality in theories of fractional M2 branes and propose a generalization of the latter. Our analysis also confirms previously known results concerning decoupled free sectors in $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 4 gauge theories realized by monopole operators.

Abstract We study monopole operators with the lowest possible topological charge q = 1/2 at the infrared fixed point of scalar electrodynamics in 2 + 1 dimension (scalar QED3) with N complex scalars and Chern-Simons coupling |k| = N. In the large N expansion, monopole operators in this theory with spins $$ \mathrm{\ell}<O\left(\sqrt{N}\right) $$ ℓ < O N and associated flavor representations are expected to have the same scaling dimension to sub-leading order in 1/N. We use the state-operator correspondence to calculate the scaling dimension to sub-leading order with the result N − 0.2743 + O(1/N), which improves on existing leading order results. We also compute the ℓ2/N term that breaks the degeneracy to sub-leading order for monopoles with spins $$ \mathrm{\ell}=O\left(\sqrt{N}\right) $$ ℓ = O N .
