## Abstract We consider a wide class of cascading gauge theories which usually lead to runaway behavior in the IR, and discuss possible deformations of the superpotential at the bottom of the cascade which stabilize the runaway direction and provide stable non‐supersymmetric vacua. The models we fi

Abstract
We review the string construction of the “orientifold field theories” and we show that for these theories the gauge/gravity correspondence is only valid for a large number of colours.

We show that the sequence of Jordan algebras M~, M3 z, M34, and M 8, whose elements are in the 3 x 3 Hermitean matrices over ~, C, Q, and 13, respectively, provide an elegant and natural framework in which to describe supersymmetric gauge theories. The four minimal supersymmetric gauge theories are
## Abstract We consider non‐supersymmetric large __N__ orientifold field theories. Specifically, we discuss a gauge theory with a Dirac fermion in the anti‐symmetric tensor representation. We argue that, at large __N__ and in a large part of its bosonic sector, this theory is non‐perturbatively equ
