We show that the N\'eel states of two-dimensional antiferromagnets have low energy vector boson excitations in the vicinity of deconfined quantum critical points. We compute the universal damping of these excitations arising from spin-wave…
A new heavy $Z'$ vector boson provides a possible explanation for the neutral current B anomalies and points to the scale where we expect the solution to the hierarchy problem to appear. In this paper, we explore a modified Top Seesaw model…
We analyze the Standard Model gauge group SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1) constructed in F-theory. The non-Abelian part SU(3) x SU(2) is described by singularities of Kodaira type. It is distinguished to naive product of SU(3) and SU(2), revealed by…
We investigate the rare baryonic ${\Lambda}_b\rightarrow{\Lambda}l^+ l^-$ decays in a non-universal $Z'$ model, which is one of the well-motivated extensions of the standard model (SM). Considering the effects of $Z'$-mediated…
We provide an ultraviolet (UV) complete model for the $R(D^{(*)})$ anomalies, in which the additional contribution to semi-tauonic $b \to c$ transitions arises from decay to a right-handed sterile neutrino via exchange of a TeV-scale…
We present a model that extends the electroweak gauge symmetry of the Standard Model in a non-universal way to $SU(2)_{L}^{\prime}\times U(1)_X \times SU(2)_{L}^{q_3}\times SU(2)_R^{\ell_3}$. This symmetry is spontaneously broken to…
Gauge-Yukawa Unification (GYU) is a renormalization group invariant functional relation among gauge and Yukawa couplings which holds beyond the unification point in Grand Unified Theories (GUTs). We present here various models where GYU is…
We consider extra dimensional gauge theories on an interval. We first review the derivation of the consistent boundary conditions (BC's) from the action principle. These BC's include choices that give rise to breaking of the gauge…
Standard Model may be defined with the additional discrete symmetry, i.e. with the gauge group $SU(3)\times SU(2) \times U(1)/{\cal Z}$ (${\cal Z} = Z_6$, $Z_3$ or $Z_2$) instead of the usual $SU(3)\times SU(2) \times U(1)$. It has the same…
We study the classification problem for anomaly-free 6D $\mathcal N=(1,0)$ supergravities with a gauged abelian R-symmetry and one tensor multiplet. We present eleven new models with gauge group $G_{\mathrm{non-Abelian}}\times U(1)_R$ that…
We show that under a new U(1) gauge symmetry, which is non-anomalous in the presence of one ``right-handed neutrino'' per generation and consistent with the standard model Yukawa couplings, the most general fermion charges are determined in…
We consider SUSY SO(10) models in which SUSY breaking occurs via an F-term which does not transform as an SO(10) singlet. This results in non-universal GUT-scale gaugino masses leading to a different pattern of sparticle masses from what is…
We examine theoretical features of $U(1)_X$ extensions of the Standard Model whose quantum anomalies are canceled per generation. Similarly to other versions, the theory consists of a Two-Higgs-Doublet Model plus a scalar singlet embedded…
By explicit solution of the one-loop finiteness conditions for gauge and quartic scalar-boson self-interaction coupling constants, a particular class of grand unified theories with vanishing Yukawa couplings as well as vanishing one-loop…
We discuss F-theory SU(5) GUTs in which some or all of the quark and lepton families are assigned to different curves and family symmetry enforces a leading order rank one structure of the Yukawa matrices. We consider two possibilities for…
We develop a minimal and fully anomaly-free realization of a universal leptophilic $U(1)'_{\ell}$ gauge symmetry, under which all Standard-Model leptons carry a common charge while quarks remain neutral. Gauge consistency is restored by…
Unification of Gauge and Yukawa sectors of GUTs is obtained by searching for renormalization group invariant relations among the couplings of the both sectors which hold beyond the unification scale. This procedure singled out two…
We show that a new GUT scenario we proposed indicates that heterotic M-theory is one of the most interesting possibility to describe our world because of the two features in the scenario. The first feature is that E_6 unified group plays an…
Searching for heavy neutral gauge bosons Z', predicted in extensions of the Standard Model based on a U(1)' gauge symmetry, is one of the challenging objectives of the experiments carried out at the Large Hadron Collider. In this paper, we…
The emergent gauge theories are reconsidered in light of supersymmetry and an appropriate emergence conjecture is formulated. Accordingly, it might be expected that only global symmetries are fundamental symmetries of Nature, whereas local…
