Abstract
We study N = 1 supersymmetric SP(N-c) gauge theories with N-f flavors of quarks in the fundamental representation. Depending on N-f and N-c, we find exact, dynamically generated superpotentials, smooth quantum moduli spaces of vacua, quantum moduli spaces of vacua with additional massless composites at strong coupling, confinement without chiral sy mmetry breaking, non-trivial fixed points of the renormalization group , and massless magnetic quarks and gluons.
