Exact Superpotentials, Quantum Vacua and Duality in Supersymmetric SP(Nc) Gauge Theories
Abstract
We study N=1 supersymmetric SP(Nc) gauge theories with Nf flavors of quarks in the fundamental representation. Depending on Nf and Nc, we find exact, dynamically generated superpotentials, smooth quantum moduli spaces of vacua, quantum moduli spaces of vacua with additional massless composites at strong coupling, confinement without chiral symmetry breaking, non-trivial fixed points of the renormalization group, and massless magnetic quarks and gluons.
