We study Seiberg duality of quiver gauge theories associated to the complexcone over the second del Pezzo surface. Homomorphisms in the path algebra ofthe quivers in each of these cases satisfy relations which follow from asuperpotential of the corresponding gauge theory as F-flatness conditions. Weverify that Seiberg duality between each pair of these theories can beunderstood as a derived equivalence between the categories of modules ofrepresentation of the path algebras of the quivers. Starting from theprojective modules of one quiver we construct tilting complexes whoseendomorphism algebra yields the path algebra of the dual quiver. Finally, wepresent a general scheme for obtaining Seiberg dual quiver theories byconstructing quivers whose path algebras are derived equivalent. We alsodiscuss some combinatorial relations between this approach and some of theother approaches which has been used to study such dualities.Comment: 20 pages, Latex, References adde
