| Summary:

We show that near the edges of the conformal window of supersymmetric
$SU(N_c)$ QCD, perturbed by Anomaly Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking (AMSB),
chiral symmetry can be broken depending on the initial conditions of the RG
flow. We do so by perturbatively expanding around Banks–Zaks fixed points and
taking advantage of Seiberg duality. Interpolating between the edges of the
conformal window, we predict that non-supersymmetric QCD breaks chiral symmetry
up to $N_f leq 3N_c – 1$, while we cannot say anything definitive for $N_f
geq 3N_c$ at this moment.
