From a Single Duality to a Web: Bailey Chains in Supersymmetric Field Theory The Bailey lemma, originally developed in the theory of special functions, has found interesting applications in supersymmetric gauge theories. It provides a systematic way to generate new identities from known ones. When interpreted in terms of supersymmetric partition functions, this procedure allows us to construct families of dual gauge theories starting from a single duality. In this talk, I will review the role of Bailey chains in supersymmetric theories in two, three and four dimensions. I will explain how the mathematical structure of Bailey pairs is related to duality transformations and the construction of quiver gauge theories. I will also discuss connections with integrable lattice models, triangulations of 3-manifolds and knot theory.
