Abstract

We introduce a diagrammatic notation for supersymmetric gauge theories. The notation is a tool for exploring duality and helps to present the field content of more complicated models in a simple visual way. We introduce the notation with a few examples from the literature. The power of the formalism allows us to study models with gauge group [SU(N)]k and their duals. Among these are models which, contrary to a naive analysis, possess no conformal phase.
