We construct the type IIA nonsupersymmetric meta-stable brane configuration consisting of (2k+1) NS5-branes and D4-branes where the electric gauge theory superpotential has an order (2k+2) polynomial for the bifundamentals. We find a rich pattern of nonsupersymmetric meta-stable states as well as the supersymmetric stable ones. By adding the orientifold 4-plane to this brane configuration, we also describe the intersecting brane configuration of type IIA string theory corresponding to the meta…

We construct the type IIA nonsupersymmetric meta-stable brane configurations corresponding to the various ${\mathcal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theories. The D6-branes are both displaced and rotated
We consider the N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with product gauge groups. The two kinds of D6-branes in the electric theory are both displaced and rotated respectively where these deformations are
We reexamine the ${\mathcal N} = 1$ supersymmetric gauge theories with product gauge groups by adding the mass terms and the quartic terms for the flavors: two-gauge group theory with fundamentals,
