Non-Supersymmetric Large N Gauge Theories from Type 0 Brane Configurations

Abstract

We use dyonic brane configurations of type 0 string theory to study large N non-supersymmetric 4d gauge theories. The brane configurations define theories similar to the supersymmetric ones which arise in type II. We find the non-SUSY analogues of N=2 and N=1. In particular we suggest new non-SUSY CFT's and a brane realization of a non-SUSY Seiberg duality.
