They interpolate between four dimensional gauge theories ($R=\infty$) and $N=4$ supersymmetric gauge theories in three dimensions ($R=0$). The vacuum structure can be determined quite precisely as a function of $R$, agreeing with three and four-dimensional results in the two limits.37 pages, harvmacHigh Energy Physics - TheoryGauge Dynamics And Compactification To Three Dimensionstext
