We study the compactification of the 6d ${cal N}=(2,0)$ SCFT on the product of a Riemann surface with flux and a circle. On the one hand, this can be understood by first reducing on the Riemann surface, giving rise to 4d ${cal N}=1$ and ${cal N}=2$ class ${cal S}$ theories, which we then reduce on $S^1$ to get 3d ${cal N}=2$ and ${cal N}=4$ class ${cal S}$ theories. On the other hand, we may first compactify on $S^1$ to get the 5d ${cal N}=2$ Yang-Mills theory. By studying its reduction on a Riemann surface, we obtain a mirror dual description of 3d class ${cal S}$ theories, generalizing the star-shaped quiver theories of Benini, Tachikawa, and Xie. We comment on some global properties of the gauge group in these reductions, and test the dualities by computing various supersymmetric partition functions.

We develop a classification of emph{minimally unbalanced} $3d~mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories. These gauge theories are important because the isometry group $G$ of their Coulomb branch contains a single factor, which is either a classical or an e xceptional Lie group. Concurrently, this provides a classification of hyperkahler cones with isometry group $G$ which are obtainable by Coulomb branch constructions. HyperKahler cones such as Coulomb branches of $3d~mathcal{N}=4$ quivers are indispensable tools for describing Higgs branches of different theories in various dimensions. In particular, they are used to describe Higgs branches of $5d~mathcal{N}=1$ SQCD with gauge group $SU(N_c)$ and $6d~mathcal N = (1,0)$ SQCD with gauge group $Sp(N_c)$ at the respective UV fixed points.
Magnetic quivers have led to significant progress in the understanding of gauge theories with 8 supercharges at UV fixed points. For a given low-energy gauge theory realised via a Type II brane construction, there exist magnetic quivers for the Higgs branches at finite and infinite gauge coupling. Comparing these moduli spaces allows to study the non-perturbative effects when transitioning to the fixed point. For 5d $mathcal{N}=1$ SQCD, 5-brane webs have been an important tool for deriving magnetic quivers. In this work, the emphasis is placed on 5-brane webs with orientifold 5-planes which give rise to 5d theories with orthogonal or symplectic gauge groups. For this set-up, the magnetic quiver prescription is derived and contrasted against a unitary magnetic quiver description extracted from an O$7^-$ construction. Further validation is achieved by a derivation of the associated Hasse diagrams. An important class of families considered are the orthogonal exceptional $E_n$ families ($-infty < n leq 8$), realised as infinite coupling Higgs branches of $mathrm{Sp}(k)$ gauge theories with fundamental matter. In particular, the moduli spaces are realised by a novel type of magnetic quivers, called unitary-orthosymplectic quivers.
Magnetic quivers and Hasse diagrams for Higgs branches of rank $r$ 4d $mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs arising from $mathbb{Z}_{ell}$ $mathcal{S}$-fold constructions are discussed. The magnetic quivers are derived using three different methods: 1) Using clues li ke dimension, global symmetry, and the folding parameter $ell$ to guess the magnetic quiver. 2) From 6d $mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ SCFTs as UV completions of 5d marginal theories, and specific FI deformations on their magnetic quiver, which is further folded by $mathbb{Z}_{ell}$. 3) From T-duality of Type IIA brane systems of 6d $mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ SCFTs and explicit mass deformation of the resulting brane web followed by $mathbb{Z}_{ell}$ folding. A choice of the ungauging scheme, either on a long node or on a short node, yields two different moduli spaces related by an orbifold action, thus suggesting a larger set of SCFTs in four dimensions than previously expected.
For any gauge theory, there may be a subgroup of the gauge group which acts trivially on the matter content. While many physical observables are not sensitive to this fact, the identification of the precise gauge group becomes crucial when the magnet ic spectrum of the theory is considered. This question is addressed in the context of Coulomb branches for $3$d $mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories, which are moduli spaces of dressed monopole operators. Since monopole operators are characterized by their magnetic charge, the identification of the gauge group is imperative for the determination of the magnetic lattice. It is well-known that the gauge group of unframed unitary quivers is the product of all unitary nodes in the quiver modded out by the diagonal $mathrm{U}(1)$ acting trivially on the matter representation. This reasoning generalises to the notion that a choice of gauge group associated to a quiver is given by the product of the individual nodes quotiented by any subgroup that acts trivially on the matter content. For unframed (unitary-) orthosymplectic quivers composed of $mathrm{SO}(textrm{even})$, $mathrm{USp}$, and possibly $mathrm{U}$ gauge nodes, the maximal subgroup acting trivially is a diagonal $mathbb{Z}_2$. For unframed unitary quivers with a single $mathrm{SU}(N)$ node it is $mathbb{Z}_N$. We use this notion to compute the Coulomb branch Hilbert series of many unitary-orthosymplectic quivers. Examples include nilpotent orbit closures of the exceptional E-type algebras and magnetic quivers that arise from brane physics. This includes Higgs branches of theories with 8 supercharges in dimensions $4$, $5$, and $6$. A crucial ingredient in the calculation of exact refined Hilbert series is the alternative construction of unframed magnetic quivers from resolved Slodowy slices, whose Hilbert series can be derived from Hall-Littlewood polynomials.
We compute the prepotential for gauge theories descending from ${cal N}=4$ SYM via quiver projections and mass deformations. This accounts for gauge theories with product gauge groups and bifundamental matter. The case of massive orientifold gauge theories with gauge group SO/Sp is also described. In the case with no gravitational corrections the results are shown to be in agreement with Seiberg-Witten analysis and previous results in the literature.
