Abstract

We present a brief summary of exact results on the non‐perturbative effective superpotential of N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theories based on generalized Konishi anomaly equations. In particular we consider theories with classical gauge groups and chiral matter in two‐index tensor representations. All these theories can be embedded into theories with unitary gauge group and adjoint matter. This embedding can be used to derive expressions for the exact non‐perturbative superpotential in terms of the 1/N expansion of the free energy of the related matrix models.
