A note on the string dual of N=1 SQCD-like theories

  • 1. Centre de Physique Theorique, Ecole Polytechnique, et UMR du CNRS, Palaiseau (France)

Description

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 additional D5-branes. The dual geometries account for the backreaction of the additional branes: they depend on the ratio between the number of flavors and colors of the gauge theory. We present here also a new set of solutions. (Abstract Copyright [2007], Wiley Periodicals, Inc.)
