SUSY breaking in monopole quivers

Abstract

Abstract We study 3d monopole quivers, theories with product gauge groups interacting through monopole superpotentials and we observe that they are a natural setup for the study of the spontaneous breaking of 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 supersymmetry. We give evidence of this statement by studying various examples of increasing complexity, considering quivers that are mirror dual to Wess-Zumino models. These Wess-Zumino models, in opportune regimes of parameters, break supersymmetry in perturbatively controllable (meta)stable vacua.
