Elaborations on the String Dual to N=1 SQCD
Roberto Casero, Carlos Nunez, Angel Paredes
In this paper we make further refinements to the duality proposed between N=1 SQCD and certain string (supergravity plus branes) backgrounds, working in the regime of comparable la…
Chiral symmetry breaking as open string tachyon condensation
Roberto Casero, Elias Kiritsis, Angel Paredes
We consider a general framework to study holographically the dynamics of fundamental quarks in a confining gauge theory. Flavors are introduced by placing a set of (coincident) bra…
A Note on the String Dual of N=1 SQCD-like Theories
Roberto Casero, Angel Paredes
In this note we describe how N=1 SQCD-like theories with a large number of flavors can be given a dual description in terms of a string background containing a large number of addi…
Phases and geometry of the N=1 A_2 quiver gauge theory and matrix models
Roberto Casero, Enrico Trincherini
We study the phases and geometry of the N=1 A_2 quiver gauge theory using matrix models and a generalized Konishi anomaly. We consider the theory both in the Coulomb and Higgs phas…
Quivers via anomaly chains
Roberto Casero, Enrico Trincherini
We study quivers in the context of matrix models. We introduce chains of generalized Konishi anomalies to write the quadratic and cubic equations that constrain the resolvents of g…
