The supersymmetric $SU(6)$ model accompanied by the flavour-blind discrete symmetry $Z_3$ can succesfully deal with such key problems of SUSY GUTs, as are the gauge hierarchy/doublet-triplet splitting, $\mu$-problem and flavour problem. The…

As a first step in the study of $\mathrm{Sp}(2N)$ composite Higgs models, we obtained a set of novel numerical results for the pure gauge $\mathrm{Sp}(4)$ lattice theory in 3+1 space-time dimensions. Results for the continuum extrapolations…
We consider general 5d $SU(N)$ quiver gauge theories whose nodes form an ADE Dynkin diagram of type $G$. Each node has $SU(N_i)$ gauge group of general rank, Chern-Simons level $\kappa_i$ and additional $w_i$ fundamentals. When the total…

We present a systematic study of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories which are in the Coulomb phase. We show how to find all such theories based on a simple gauge group and no tree-level superpotential. We find the low-energy solution for the…
We describe a simple technique for generating solutions to the classical field equations for an arbitrary nonlinear sigma-model minimally coupled to gravity. The technique promotes an arbitrary solution to the coupled Einstein/Klein-Gordon…
The challenge of identifying symmetry-protected topological states (SPTs) is due to their lack of symmetry-breaking order parameters and intrinsic topological orders. For this reason, it is impossible to formulate SPTs under Ginzburg-Landau…
We introduce gauge theories based on a class of disconnected gauge groups, called principal extensions. Although in this work we focus on 4d theories with N=2 SUSY, such construction is independent of spacetime dimensions and supersymmetry.…
