Abstract

We study the phase diagram of an [Formula: see text] gauge theory in terms of the number of colors [Formula: see text] and flavors [Formula: see text] with emphasis on the confinement and chiral symmetry breaking phases. We argue that as opposed to SUSY QCD there is a small region in the [Formula: see text] plane where the theory has the chiral symmetry broken but it is unconfined. The possibility of a new phase with strong confinement and chiral symmetry breaking is suggested.
