SUMMARY:Orientifolds and new N=1 Dualities - Heidenreich\, B (Cornell Univ

DESCRIPTION:I report on a new class of N=1 dualities relating different ga
 uge theories arising from D3 branes probing orientifold singularities. The
 se dualities provide new\, nontrivial solutions to the 't Hooft anomaly ma
 tching conditions. I discuss an infinite class of orbifold singularities w
 here the duality can be interpreted as S-duality in ten dimensions. I also
  discuss non-orbifold singularities\, and the microscopic interpretation o
 f the duality in terms of an orientifold transition between compact O7+ an
 d O7- planes.\n\n
