Description
It has been conjectured that duality cascade occurs in the N = 3 supersymmetric Yang-Mills Chern-Simons theory with the gauge group U(N)*U(N +M) coupled to two bi-fundamental hypermultiplets. The brane picture suggests that this duality cascade can be generalized to a class of 3d N = 3 supersymmetric quiver gauge theories coming from so-called Hanany-Witten type brane configurations. In this paper we perform non-perturbative tests of the duality cascades using supersymmetry localization. We focus on S^3 partition functions and prove predictions from the duality cascades.
