Flavour structure, flavour symmetry and supersymmetry

Abstract

We discuss the role played by the horizontal flavour symmetry in supersymmetric theories. In particular, we consider the horizontal symmetry SU(3)HSU(3)_H between the three fermion families and show how this concept can help in explaining the fermion mass spectrum and mixing pattern in the context of SUSY GUTs.
