DESCRIPTION:We will review the program of understanding 4d supersymmetric 
 theories as dimensional reductions of 6d theories. In particular we will s
 tudy compactifications on Riemann surfaces of N = (1\, 0) 6d SCFTs with a 
 one dimensional tensor branch description as pure SU(3) gauge theory. We p
 ropose a field theory construction for the resulting 4d theories. We argue
  that the theories in four dimensions are quivers with SU(3) gauge nodes a
 nd free chiral fields.  The conformal manifolds of the models are construc
 ted from gauge couplings and baryonic superpotentials. We support our conj
 ectures by matching the dimensions of the conformal manifolds with complex
  structure moduli of the Riemann surfaces\, matching anomalies between six
  and four dimensions\, and checking the dualities related to different pai
 r of pants decompositions of the surfaces. As a simple application of the 
 results we conjecture that SU(3) gauge theory with nine flavors in four di
 mensions has a duality group acting on the seven dimensional conformal man
 ifold which is the mapping class group of sphere with ten marked points.
