Fusions and Dualities for 3d Theories $T[M_3]$

Abstract: We study 3d theories determined by three-manifolds. Previously, we found that some basic 3d dualities relate to the surgeries of three-manifolds and defined gauge circles and matter circles. In this note, we discuss some operations including handle slides, gaugings and flips of mass parameters, and the corresponding geometric interpretations for these operations. We note that a fusion identity could describe the fusion, or in other words, the connected sum of matter circles. Many abelian dualities could arise from this fusion and inherit geometric interpretations thereof.
