Abstract
We consider SQCD for . We use a brane configuration in type IIA string theory to propose a Seiberg dual. The brane configuration that realises the magnetic theory contains branes and \textit{anti}-branes, leading to an gauge theory with flavours. The potential between the branes triggers a RG flow and we argue that the IR theory realises the Affleck-Dine-Seiberg superpotential. We use both field theory arguments, in particular anomaly matching, and a lift of the type IIA brane configuration to M-theory, in order to support our proposal.
