QCD Quark Condensate from SUSY and the Orientifold Large-N Expansion
A. Armoni, M. Shifman, G. Veneziano
We estimate the quark condensate in one-flavor massless QCD from the known value of the gluino condensate in SUSY Yang-Mills theory using our newly proposed "orientifold" large-N e…

Exact Results in Non-Supersymmetric Large N Orientifold Field Theories
A. Armoni, M. Shifman, G. Veneziano
We consider non-supersymmetric large N orientifold field theories. Specifically, we discuss a gauge theory with a Dirac fermion in the anti-symmetric tensor representation. We argu…

Closed Strings Tachyons and Non-Commutative Instabilities
Adi Armoni, Esperanza Lopez, Angel M. Uranga
We observe a relation between closed strings tachyons and one-loop instabilities in non-supersymmetric non-commutative gauge theories. In particular we analyze the spectra of type…
