Some Theoretical Developments in SUSY

Abstract

I review theoretical developments of the last year or so in nonperturbative supersymmetry. Topics: (i) Metastable vacua at strong coupling; (ii) Non-Abelian flux tubes, confined monopoles; (iii) One step beyond Seiberg's duality; (iv) Planar equivalence; (v) Multileg/multiloop amplitudes; (vi) N= (2,0) sigma model on the string worldsheet.
