Abstract

We investigate the low-energy dynamics of SU(N)SU(N) gauge theories with one antisymmetric tensor field, N4+NfN - 4 + N_f antifundamentals and NfN_f fundamentals, for Nf3N_f \le 3. For Nf=3N_f = 3 we construct the quantum moduli space, and for Nf<3N_f < 3 we find the exact quantum superpotentials. We find two large classes of models with dynamical supersymmetry breaking. The odd NN theories break supersymmetry once appropriate mass terms are added in the superpotential. The even NN theories break supersymmetry after gauging an extra chiral U(1)U(1) symmetry.
