The CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider has reported a 2.8$\sigma$ excess in the $(2e)(2jets)$ channel around 2.1 TeV. Interpretation of this data is reconsidered in terms of the production of a right-handed weak gauge boson, $W_R$,…
A supersymmetric model with gauge symmetry G_1 X G_2, where G_i=SU(3)_i X SU(2)_i X U(1)_i, is constructed within the framework of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking. At the energy scale (10-100) TeV where the gauge symmetry breaks down…
We study supersymmetric extra U(1) model with $S_4$ flavor symmetry. The flavor symmetry not only stabilizes proton but also suppresses the flavor changing processes without raising the supersymmetry breaking scale. After the flavor…
Gauge-coupling unification is just as successful in the standard model with six Higgs doublets as it is in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. However, the gauge couplings unify at 10^14 GeV, which yields rapid proton decay in the…
We perform numerical fits of Grand Unified Models based on SO(10), using various combinations of 10-, 120- and 126-dimensional Higgs representations. Both the supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric versions are fitted, as well as both…
We propose an SU(5) grand unified model with an invisible axion and the unification of the three coupling constants which is in agreement with the values, at $M_Z$, of $\alpha$, $\alpha_s$, and $\sin^2\theta_W$. A discrete, anomalous,…
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…
It is shown that the doublet-triplet splitting problem can be solved in SO(10) using the Dimopoulos-Wilczek mechanism with a very economical Higgs content and simple structure. Only one adjoint Higgs field is required, together with spinor…
We present a minimal non-supersymmetric SO(10) GUT breaking directly to the Standard Model gauge group. Precise gauge coupling unification is achieved due to the presence of two color-octet scalars, one of which is accessible to LHC…
We present a simple supersymmetric model of split families consistent with flavor limits that preserves the successful prediction of gauge coupling unification and naturally accounts for the Higgs mass. The model provides an intricate…
We construct a supersymmetric standard model in the context of the Z_{12-I} orbifold compactification of the E_8 x E_8' heterotic string theory. The gauge group is SU(3)_c x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y x U(1)^4 x [SO(10) x U(1)^3]' with sin^2\theta_W…
In a recent paper, we proposed a new class of supersymmetric SO(10) models for neutrino masses where the TeV scale electroweak symmetry is SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times U(1)_{B-L} making the associated gauge bosons W_R and Z' accessible at…
$SO(10)$ grand unified models have an intermediate symmetry group in between $SO(10)$ and $SU(3)_{C} \otimes SU(2)_{L} \otimes U(1)_{Y}$. Hence they lead to a prediction for proton lifetime in agreement with the experimental lower limit.…
Supersymmetric extensions of the standard model lead us to expect superpartners for all particles, spin-0 squarks and sleptons and spin-1/2 gluinos, charginos and neutralinos, with an odd R-parity making the lightest one stable. The…
A fully realistic unified theory is constructed, with SU(5) gauge symmetry and supersymmetry both broken by boundary conditions in a fifth dimension. Despite the local explicit breaking of SU(5) at a boundary of the dimension, the large…
