We study low-energy dynamics of three-dimensional N = 2 SU(N) "chiral" gauge theories with F fundamental and anti-fundamental matters without a Chern–Simons term. Compared to a naive semi-classical analysis of the Coulomb branch, its quantum structure is highly richer than expected due to so-called "dressed" Coulomb branch (monopole) operators. We propose dualities and confinement phases for the "chiral" SU(N) theories. The theories with N > F > F exhibit spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. The very many Coulomb branch operators generally remain exactly massless and are non-trivially mapped under the dualities. Some dualities lead to a novel duality between SU(N) and USp(2Ñ) theories. For the 3d N= SU(2) gauge theory with 2F doublets, there are generally F + 2 "chiral" and "non-chiral" dual descriptions.
