Gauge unification in a five dimensional supersymmetric SO(10) model compactified on an orbifold $S^1/(Z_2 \times Z_2^{\prime})$ is studied. One orbifolding reduces N=2 supersymmetry to N=1, and the other breaks SO(10) to the Pati-Salam…
We discuss some phenomenological aspects of gauged supersymmetric $\gs$--models on homogeneous coset-spaces $\ESO$ and $SO(10)/U(5)$ which are some of the most interesting for phenomenology. We investigate in detail the vacuum…
The minimal renormalizable supersymmetric SO(10) model, an SO(10) framework with only one 10 and one 126 Higgs multiplets in the Yukawa sector, is attractive because of its high predictive power for the neutrino oscillation data. However,…
The $SO(11)$ gauge-Higgs grand unification in the Randall-Sundrum warped space is presented. The 4D Higgs field is identified as the zero mode of the fifth dimensional component of the gauge potentials, or as the fluctuation mode of the…
We study dynamical gauge symmetry breaking via compactified space in the framework of SU(N) gauge theory in M^{d-1}\times S^1 (d=4,5,6) space-time. In particular, we study in detail the gauge symmetry breaking in SU(2) and SU(3) gauge…
The simplest Gauge-Higgs Unification model is a five-dimensional SU(2) gauge theory compactified on the S^1/Z_2 orbifold, such that on the four-dimensional boundaries of space-time there is an unbroken U(1) symmetry and a complex scalar,…
Some admissible gauge groups of N=4 Chern-Simons gauged supergravity in three dimensions with exceptional scalar manifolds $G_{2(2)}/SO(4)$, $F_{4(4)}/USp(6)\times SU(2)$, $E_{6(2)}/SU(6)\times SU(2)$, $E_{7(-5)}/SO(12)\times SU(2)$ and…
First, we briefly review the Coset Space Dimensional Reduction scheme and the results of the best model so far. Then, we present the introduction of fuzzy coset spaces used as extra dimensions and perform a dimensional reduction. In turn,…
In the context of supersymmetric $SO(10)$ grand unified models, it is shown that the gauge symmetry breaking as well as a natural doublet--triplet splitting can be achieved with a minimal Higgs system consisting of a single adjoint and a…
We study the $N=2$ supersymmetric $E_6$ models on the 6-dimensional space-time where the supersymmetry and gauge symmetry can be broken by the discrete symmetry. On the space-time $M^4\times S^1/(Z_2\times Z_2') \times S^1/(Z_2\times…
We construct a minimal supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified model in 5 dimensions. The extra dimension is compactified on an S^1/(Z_2 x Z_2^\prime) orbifold which has two in-equivalent fixed points. These are flat 4-dimensional Minkowski…
Conventional SO(10) models involve more than one scale for a complete breaking of the GUT symmetry requiring further assumptions on the VEVs of the Higgs fields that enter in the breaking to achieve viable models. Recent works where the…
It is well known that the toroidal dimensional reduction of supergravities gives rise in three dimensions to theories whose bosonic sectors are described purely in terms of scalar degrees of freedom, which parameterise sigma-model coset…
We embed a theory with Zprime gauge boson (related to extra U(1) gauge group) into a supersymmetric GUT theory based on SO(10). Two possible sequences of SO(10) breaking via VEVs of appropriate Higgs fields are considered. Gauge coupling…
We discuss the derivation of $SO(10)$ G.U.T. models from higher dimensional theories with intermediate breaking scales. We then present models based on the Coset Space Dimensional Reduction Scheme with intermediate symmetry breaking induced…
Supersymmetric Grand Unified Theories (SGUTs) have achieved some degree of success, already present in the minimal models (with SU(5) or SO(10)). However, there are open problems that suggest the need to incorporate more elaborate…
Maximally supersymmetric SO(10) and SU(6) unified theories are constructed on the orbifold T^2/(Z_2 x Z'_2), with one length scale R_5 taken much larger than the other, R_6. The effective theory below 1/R_6 is found to be the highly…
We discuss two classes of supersymmetric grand unified theories based on extended gauge groups $SO(10) \times SO(10)$ and $SO(10)\times SO(10)\times SO(10)$. Effective adjoint fields of each gauge group SO(10) are argued to be formed from…
In a preceding report (hep-th/0112261), Pierre Ramond outlined a programme we have followed recently. An important ingredient in a future unique theory for basic physics must be a unique mathematical structure. It is then interesting to…
We construct supersymmetric (SUSY) grand unification (GUT) models in the six dimensional space-time where the GUT symmetry is broken down to the standard-model gauge group by a simple orbifolding T^2/Z_4 or T^2/Z_6 and a pair of massless…
