Description

We introduce a realization of Seiberg duality in MQCD that does not involve moving branes. Using related arguments in M Theory and IIA, we investigate the flavor symmetry breaking via flavored magnetic monopole condensation of hep-th/0005076. We verify our results by considering visualizations of M5 branes corresponding to N=2 vacua which survive soft breaking by an adjoint mass term. (author)
