${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric $SU(N)\times SU(N+M)$ cascading gauge theory of Klebanov et.al spontaneously breaks chiral symmetry in Minkowski space-time. We demonstrate that in de Sitter space-time the chiral symmetry breaking occurs for the…
We study Euclidean 3D N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories on squashed three-spheres preserving isometries SU(2) x U(1) or U(1) x U(1). We show that, when a suitable background U(1) gauge field is turned on, these squashed spheres support…
