摘要：

We study four-dimensional N = 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 new method for identifying quiver symmetries of the four-dimensional theories using the brane webs is developed. Five-dimensional theories are associated to the theories on the D3-branes by using (p, q) webs. This leads to a novel interpretation of Seiberg duality, which can be mapped to the crossing of curves of marginal stability in five dimensions.
