Abstract
We investigate quantum effects on the Coulomb branch of three-dimensional N = 4
supersymmetric gauge theory with gauge group SU(2). We calculate perturbative and
one-instanton contributions to the Wilsonian effective action using standard weakcoupling
methods. Unlike the four-dimensional case, and despite supersymmetry, the
contribution of non-zero modes to the instanton measure does not cancel.
