We propose a framework for a new type of finite field theories based on a hidden duality between an ultra-violet and an infra-red region. Physical quantities do not receive radiative corrections at a fundamental scale or the fixed point of…
Minimally doubled fermions provide a cheap and convenient way of simulating quarks which preserve chiral symmetry. It has been established that two actions of this kind (known as Borici-Creutz and Karsten-Wilczek) require the tuning of…
A minimal fermion-scalar preonic model containing two fermionic and one scalar preons is proposed. This scheme allows to prevent the occurrence of undesired SM-level particles, namely leptons and quarks with unusual electric charges.…
A new non-universal abelian extension $\mathrm{G_{SM}}\otimes \mathrm{U(1)}_{X}$ to the Standard Model free from chiral anomalies is presented. The new $X$ charges distinguish among generations so as the fermion mass matrices get…
In the recent paper [AF12], we introduced an analysis of the Brylinski-Kostant model for spherical minimal representations for simple real Lie groups of non Hermitian type. We generalize here that analysis and give a unified geometric…
The gauging of isometries in general sigma-models which include fermionic terms which represent the interaction of strings with background Yang-Mills fields is considered. Gauging is possible only if certain obstructions are absent. The…
Semi-annihilation is a generic feature of dark matter theories with symmetries larger than Z2. We investigate two examples with multi-component dark sectors comprised of an SU(2)L singlet or triplet fermion besides a scalar singlet. These…
We investigate a scenario in a supersymmetric SO(10) Grand Unified Theory in which the fermion mass matrices are generated by renormalizable Yukawa couplings of the $\mathbf{10} \oplus \mathbf{120} \oplus \bar{\mathbf{126}}$ representation…
We consider a minimal formulation of SO(10) Grand Unified Theory wherein all the fermion masses arise from Yukawa couplings involving one 126 and one 10 of Higgs multiplets. It has recently been recognized that such theories can explain,…
We reconsider models of fermion masses and mixings based on a gauge anomalous horizontal U(1) symmetry. In the simplest model with a single flavon field and horizontal charges of the same sign for all Standard Model fields, only very few…
We study some sorts of dimensionally-deconstructed models for supersymmetric (Euclidean) quantum mechanics, or zero-dimensional field theory. In these models, we assign bosonic and fermionic variables to vertices and edges of a graph. We…
The role of the auxiliary su(2)-algebra proposed by the present authors in the latest paper is extended. Its aim is to determine the minimum weight states completely. With the aid of scalar operators for the auxiliary algebra, new aspects…
These notes, based on work with Herbi Dreiner and Howie Haber, discuss how to do practical calculations of cross sections and decay rates using two-component fermion notation, as appropriate for supersymmetry and other…
We consider the contribution of a two-loop Barr-Zee type diagram to $(g-2)_\mu$ in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). At relatively large $\tan\beta$, we show that the contribution of light third generation scalar fermions…
We prove several results relating the nonvanishing and the existence of good minimal models of different pairs that have the same underlying variety.
The fermion masses in the standard model are introduced as arbitrary parameters and there is no understanding of their origin. In this letter it is suggested that small non zero neutrino masses may be a reflection of broken stochastic…
An anomaly free non-universal $U(1)_{X}$ extension to the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is proposed, where additional two $SU(2)$ doublet superfields and four singlet superfields complement the scalar sector of the model. The…
The supersymmetric sector of minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) possesses a U(1) R-symmetry which contains Z_2 matter parity. Non-zero neutrino masses, consistent with a 'redefined' R-symmetry, are possible through the see-saw…
We study N=2 supersymmetric Chern-Simons Higgs models in $(2+1)$-dimensions. As we will demonstrate, an extended supersymmetric quantum mechanics algebras underlies the fermionic zero modes quantum system and the zero modes corresponding to…
We review a possible solution to the fermion generation puzzle based on a nonabelian generalization of electric--magnetic duality derived some years ago. This nonabelian duality implies the existence of another SU(3) symmetry dual to…
