Abstract

We classify three-dimensional isolated weighted homogeneous rational complete intersection singularities, which define many new four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 2$ superconformal field theories. We also determine the mini-versal deformation of these singularities, and therefore solve the Coulomb branch spectrum and Seiberg–Witten solution.
