We compute an effective potential between two fixed sources in light-front quantization of a quenched scalar Yukawa theory that models the interaction of complex scalar fields through the exchange of a neutral scalar. Despite the breaking…
Third family Yukawa unification, as suggested by minimal SO(10) unification, is revisited in light of recent experimental measurements and theoretical progress. We characterize unification in a semi-model-independent fashion, and conclude…
We investigate a relativistic quantum field theory in the particle representation using a non-perturbative variational technique. The theory is that of two massive scalar particles, `nucleons' and `mesons', interacting via a Yukawa…
The condition of unification of gauge couplings in the minimal supersymmetric standard model provides successful predictions for the weak mixing angle as a function of the strong gauge coupling and the supersymmetric threshold scale. In…
We consider the most general renormalizable chiral Yukawa model with $SU(3)_{\rm color}$ replaced by $SU(N_c)$, $SU(2)_{\rm L}$ replaced by $SU(N_w )$ and $U(1)_{Y}$ replaced by $U(1)^{N_w -1}$ in the limit $N_c \rightarrow\infty$, $N_w…
A non geometric sector of the duality group emerging in Kaluza-Klein reductions is realized as an effective symmetry in the low energy action of uncompactified type II theories. This is achieved by extending the so called $\beta$ symmetry…
Results for $\beta$-functions and anomalous dimensions in general scalar fermion theories are presented to three loops. Various constraints on the individual coefficients for each diagram following from supersymmetry are analysed. The…
We prove bilateral capacitary estimates for the maximal solution $U_F$ of $-\Delta u+u^q=0$ in the complement of an arbitrary closed set $F\subset\mathbb R^N$, involving the Bessel capacity $C_{2,q'}$, for $q$ in the supercritical range…
Supersymmetric Grand Unification usually provides unification of the bottom quark and the tau lepton Yukawa couplings at the GUT scale. In the CMSSM this can be realised only for a very particular choice of parameters. In this letter we…
Computation of Yukawa couplings, determining superpotentials as well as the K\"{a}hler metric, with oblique (non-commuting) fluxes in magnetized brane constructions is an interesting unresolved issue, in view of the importance of such…
By solving the compositeness condition, under which the Yukawa-type model coincides the NJL type model, we obtain the expressions for the effective coupling constants in terms of the compositeness scale at the next-to-leading order in 1/N.…
The first fermion family might play a key role in understanding the structure of flavour: a role of the mass unification point. The GUT scale running masses $\bar{m}_{e,u,d}$ are rather close, which may indicate an approximate symmetry…
It is shown that top-bottom-tau Yukawa unification for \mu<0 can be consistent with (g-2)_\mu and b->s \gamma. This happens for non-universal gaugino masses which are assumed to be generated by the F-term vev in a 54-dimensional…
In supersymmetric theories with extra dimensions, the Higgs and matter fields can be part of the gauge multiplet, so that the Yukawa interactions can arise from the gauge interactions. This leads to the possibility of gauge-Yukawa coupling…
We investigate the high temperature fate of four dimensional gauge-Yukawa theories featuring short distance conformality of either interacting or non-interacting nature. The latter is known as complete asymptotic freedom and, as templates,…
A Theorem on the minimal specific energy for a system with \pm 1 charged particles interacting through the Yukawa pair potential v is proved which may stated as follows. Let v be represented by scale mixtures of d-dimensional Euclid's hat…
We present a supersymmetric SU(5) x U(1)_H model, free from gauge anomalies, where the Abelian factor U(1)_H, introduced to account for the hierarchy of fermion masses and mixings, is broken by the same adjoint representations of SU(5) that…
In this paper we discuss the singularities in the Yukawa and gauge couplings of N=1 compactifications of the SO(32) heterotic string in four space-time dimensions. Such singularities can arise from the strong coupling dynamics of a confined…
In various unified extensions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, the Yukawa couplings of the third generation are predicted to be of the same order. As a result, low energy measured mass ratios, require large ratios of the…
In the light of the gathering evidence for $\nu_{\mu}-\nu_{\tau}$ neutrino oscillations, coming in particular from the Super-Kamiokande data on atmospheric neutrinos, we re-analyze the unification of gauge and Yukawa couplings within the…
