Gauge/gravity duality and meta-stable dynamical supersymmetry breaking
Riccardo Argurio, Matteo Bertolini, Sebastian Franco +1
We engineer a class of quiver gauge theories with several interesting features by studying D-branes at a simple Calabi-Yau singularity. At weak 't Hooft coupling we argue using fie…
On Stable Non-Supersymmetric Vacua at the Bottom of Cascading Theories
Riccardo Argurio, Matteo Bertolini, Cyril Closset +1
We consider a wide class of cascading gauge theories which usually lead to runaway behaviour in the IR, and discuss possible deformations of the superpotential at the bottom of the…
Brane world effective actions for D-branes with fluxes
Matteo Bertolini, Marco Billo, Alberto Lerda +2
We develop systematic string techniques to study brane world effective actions for models with magnetized (or equivalently intersecting) D-branes. In particular, we derive the depe…
