Abstract: We discuss two infinite classes of 4d supersymmetric theories, TN(m) and calUN(m), labelled by an arbitrary non-negative integer, m. The TN(m) theory arises from the 6d, AN1 type calN=(2,0) theory reduced on a 3-punctured sphere, with normal bundle given by line bundles of degree (m+1,m); the m=0 case is the calN=2 supersymmetric TN theory. The novelty is the negative-degree line bundle. The calUN(m) theories likewise arise from the 6d calN=(2,0) theory on a 4-punctured sphere, and can be regarded as gluing together two (partially Higgsed) TN(m) theories. The TN(m) and calUN(m) theories can be represented, in various duality frames, as quiver gauge theories, built from TN components via gauging and nilpotent Higgsing. We analyze the RG flow of the calUN(m) theories, and find that, for all integer m>0, they end up at the same IR SCFT as SU(N) SQCD with 2N flavors and quartic superpotential. The calUN(m) theories can thus be regarded as an infinite set of UV completions, dual to SQCD with Nf=2Nc. The calUN(m) duals have different duality frame quiver representations, with 2m+1 gauge nodes.
