We develop an unhiggsing procedure for finding the D-brane probe world volume gauge theory for blowups of geometries whose gauge theory data are known. As specific applications we unhiggs the well-studied theories for the cone over the third del Pezz... Read More about Unhiggsing the del Pezzo.

Toric duality, Seiberg duality and Picard-Lefschetz transformations (2003)
Journal Article

Toric Duality arises as an ambiguity in computing the quiver gauge theory living on a D3-brane which probes a toric singularity. It is reviewed how, in simple cases Toric Duality is Seiberg Duality. The set of all Seiberg Dualities on a single node i... Read More about Toric duality, Seiberg duality and Picard-Lefschetz transformations.

Geometric dualities in 4-D field theories and their 5-D interpretation (2003)
Journal Article

We study four-dimensional = 1 gauge theories arising on D3-branes probing toric singularities. Toric dualities and flows between theories corresponding to different singularities are analyzed by encoding the geometric information into (p,q) webs. A n...
