Recently it was demonstrated that free fermionic heterotic-strings can produce models with solely the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model states in the low energy spectrum. This unprecedented result provides further strong evidence for…
In the present work we perform a phenomenological analysis of the effective low energy models with Pati-Salam (PS) gauge symmetry derived in the context of D-branes. A main issue in these models arises from the fact that the right-handed…
We study the low-energy behavior of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with product gauge groups SU(N)^M and M chiral superfields transforming in the fundamental representation of two of the SU(N) factors. These theories are in the Coulomb…
Supersymmetric models with an approximate CP, $10^{-3} \lsim \phi_{CP} \ll 1$, are a viable framework for the description of nature. The full high energy theory has exact CP and horizontal symmetries that are spontaneously broken with a…
Motivated by possible scalar-leptoquark explanations of the recently reported $B$-decay anomalies, we investigate whether the required leptoquarks can be accommodated within models based on noncommutative geometry (NCG). The models…
On the universal seesaw mass matrix model, which is a promising model of the unified description of the quark and lepton mass matrices, the behaviors of the gauge coupling constants and intermediate energy scales in the SO(10)_L\times…
We calculate the prominent perturbative contributions shaping the one-loop scalar spectrum of the minimal non-supersymmetric renormalizable $SO(10)$ Higgs model whose unified gauge symmetry is spontaneously broken by an adjoint scalar.…
We propose a new algebraic deformation of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM via decomposition of spinor and scalar fields in vector supermultiplet. This decomposition generates degrees of freedom of usual quarks and leptons and the deformation model is a…
A search for supersymmetry anomalies requires an examination of the BRS cohomology of supersymmetric Yang-Mills coupled to chiral matter, and the physically interesting (on-shell) anomalies are those which cannot be eliminated using the…
We reconsider the issue of spontaneous symmetry breaking in SO(10) grand unified theories. The emphasis is put on the quest for the minimal Higgs sector leading to a phenomenologically viable breaking to the standard model gauge group.…
We construct the $\lambda$-model on $SU(3)_k/U(2)_k$ and we compute the one-loop $\beta$-function for the deformation parameter $\lambda$. Its non-compact version for $SU(2,1)_{-k}/U(2)_{-k}$ is also considered, whose target space admits an…
In the derivation of the Standard Model from the axioms of Noncommutative Geometry, the scalar sector is given by a finite Dirac operator which has to satisfy the so-called \emph{first-order condition}. However, the general solution to this…
We develop a systematic approach to confinement in N=1 supersymmetric theories. We identify simple necessary conditions for theories to confine without chiral symmetry breaking and to generate a superpotential non-perturbatively…
We show that gauge symmetry breaking in the Weinberg-Salam model can be implemented by a mere change of variables and without any explicit gauge fixing. The change of variables entails the concept of supercurrent which has been widely…
We propose a simple gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking model in which suitable soft breaking masses are dynamically generated without relying on a messenger sector. This model is constructed as an extention of the 3-2 model and needs no…
We construct a purely fermionic system with spontaneously broken supersymmetry that shares the common feature with a fracton phase of matter. Our model is gapless due to the Nambu-Goldstone mechanism. It shows a ground-state degeneracy with…
We study the breaking of a supersymmetric SO(10) GUT in 6 dimensions by orbifold compactification. In 4 dimensions we obtain a N=1 supersymmetric theory with the standard model gauge group enlarged by an additional U(1) symmetry. The…
Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models are obtained from linear sigma models by imposing supersymmetric constraints. If we introduce auxiliary chiral and vector superfields, these constraints can be expressed by D-terms and F-terms depending…
It is one of the major issues to realize a vacuum which breaks supersymmetry (SUSY) and R-symmetry, in a supersymmetric model. We study the model, where the same sector breaks the gauge symmetry and SUSY. In general, the SUSY breaking model…
We consider a class of simplified models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking built in terms of their five-dimensional weakly-coupled gravity duals, in the spirit of bottom-up holography. The sigma-model consists of two abelian gauge…
