Some formal aspects of supersymmetry breaking are reviewed. The classic "requirements" for supersymmetry breaking include chiral matter, a dynamical superpotential, and a classical superpotential which completely lifts the moduli space.…
We address dynamical supersymmetry breaking within a N=1 supersymmetric Standard-like Model based on a Z_2 x Z_2 Type IIA orientifold with intersecting D6-branes. The model possesses an additional, confining gauge sector with the USp(2)_A x…
In models inspired by non-commutative geometry, patterns of gauge symmetry breaking are analyzed, and SU(5) models are found to naturally favor a vacuum preserving SU(3) X SU(2) X U(1). A more realistic model is presented, and the…
We propose a model of metastable dynamical supersymmetry breaking in which all scales are generated dynamically. Our construction is a simple variant of the Intriligator-Seiberg-Shih model, with quark masses induced by renormalizable…
A new SO(10) unified model is proposed based on a one step breaking of SO(10) to the Standard Model gauge group $SU(3)\times SU(2)\times U(1)_Y$ using a single 144 of Higgs. The symmetry breaking occurs when the SU(5) 24-plet component of…
We present a qualitatively new mechanism for dynamical spontaneous breakdown of supersymmetry. Specifically, we construct a modified formulation of standard minimal N=1 supergravity. The modification is based on an idea worked out in detail…
We construct realistic supergravity models where supersymmetry breaking arises from the $D$-terms of an anomalous $U(1)$ gauge symmetry broken at the Planck scale. The model has the attractive feature that the gaugino masses, the $A$ and…
Assuming dynamical spontaneous breakdown of chiral symmetry for massless gauge theory without scalar fields, we present a method how to construct an effective action of the dynamical Nambu-Goldstone bosons and elemetary fermions by using…
We show that metastable supersymmetry breaking is generic near certain enhanced symmetry points of gauge theory moduli spaces. Our model consists of two sectors coupled by a singlet and combines dynamical supersymmetry breaking with an…
We present a preliminar study of the scalar potential of the usual scalars in the Minimal Supersymmetric $SU(3)_{C}\times SU(3)_{L}\times U(1)_{N}$ Model. We will consider the case in which all the usual neutral scalars fields of this model…
We propose that a modified version of string-inspired supersymmetry breaking schemes in \cite{wit2} and \cite{ross} may make affine level one SU(5) and SO(10) string models with intermediate gauge symmetry breaking scale…
We parametrize in a model-independent way possible departures from the minimal Standard Model predictions in the matter sector. We only assume the symmetry breaking pattern of the Standard Model and that new particles are sufficiently heavy…
In the generalized minimal supergravity (GmSUGRA) scenario, we systematically study the supersymmetry breaking scalar masses, Standard Model fermion Yukawa coupling terms, and trilinear soft terms in SU(5) models with the Higgs fields in…
We summarize basic features associated to dynamical breaking of the electroweak symmetry. The knowledge of the phase diagram of strongly coupled theories as function of the number of colors, flavors and matter representation plays a…
The emergence of non-configurational symmetry is studied in a minimal example. The system under scrutiny consists of a dimeric hexagonal complex with configurational $C_3$ symmetry, formulated as a tight-binding model. An accidental…
We analyze dynamics of chiral gauge theories based on the $SU(N)$ gauge group with one anti-symmetric tensor $A$ and $(N-4)$ anti-fundamentals $F_{i}$ when $N$ is odd. Based on the continuity to the supersymmetric gauge theories with…
A new mechanism for symmetry breaking is proposed which naturally avoids the constraints following from the usual theorems of symmetry breaking. In the context of super-symmetry, for example, the breaking may be consistent with a vanishing…
The $SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ symmetry actually studied is directly broken to the electroweak symmetry $SU(2)_L\otimes U(1)_Y$ by a Higgs triplet, predicting a relevant new physics at TeV scale. This work argues, by contrast, that the higher…
We introduce a $CP$ symmetric model where masses of fermions are given by dimensional-5 operators, and $CP$ is spontaneously broken at TeV scale. The unique feature of the model is that new $CP$ symmetric gauge sector coexists with new $CP$…
There are supersymmetric gauge theories which do not possess any parameters nor flat directions, and hence cannot be studied anywhere in the field space using holomorphy (``non-calculable''). Some of them are believed to break supersymmetry…
