Having shortly reviewed our idea of the grand unified SU(5) being only exact in a classical limit, in a truly existing lattice, an ontological lattice, we go over to putting a series of different physical energy scales such the approximate…
The present theory is based on the assumption that at the very small (Planck scale) distances our space-time is discrete, and this discreteness influences on the Planck scale physics. Considering our (3+1)-dimensional space-time as a…
We consider the application of the Multiple Point Criticality Principle to the Standard Model and its extension to the anti-grand gauge group $SMG^3 \otimes U(1)_f$ at the Planck scale. In particular we discuss the predictions for the fine…
The idea of grand unification in a minimal supersymmetric SU(5)xSU(5) framework is revisited. It is shown that the unification of gauge couplings into a unique coupling constant can be achieved at a high-energy scale compatible with proton…
We systematically construct flipped SU(5) X U(1)_X models without and with bulk vector-like particles from F-theory. To realize the decoupling scenario, we introduce sets of vector-like particles in complete SU(5) X U(1) multiplets at the…
Considering our (3+1)-dimensional space-time as, in some way, discrete or l attice with a parameter $a=\lambda_P$, where $\lambda_P$ is the Planck length, we have investigated the additional contributions of lattice artifact monopoles to…
GUT scale threshold corrections in minimal SU(5) supergravity grand unification are discussed. It is shown that predictions may be made despite uncertainties associated with the high energy scale. A bound relating the strong coupling…
A realistic SU(3)_C x SU(3)_W unified theory is constructed with a TeV sized extra dimension compactified on the orbifold S_1/Z_2, leaving only the standard model gauge group SU(3)_C x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y unbroken in the low energy 4D theory.…
Higher dimensional grand unified theories, with gauge symmetry breaking by orbifold compactification, possess SU(5) breaking at fixed points, and do not automatically lead to tree-level gauge coupling unification. A new framework is…
We discuss a series of 8 energy scales, some of which just speculated by ourselves, and fit the logarithms of these energies as a straight line versus a quantity related to the dimensionalities of action terms in a way to be defined in the…
Asymptotically safe quantum fluctuations of gravity can uniquely determine the value of the gauge coupling for a large class of grand unified models. In turn, this makes the electromagnetic fine-structure constant calculable. The balance of…
In developing a model for predicting the nonabelian gauge coupling constants we argue for the phenomenological validity of a ``principle of multiple point criticality''. This is supplemented with the assumption of an ``(grand)…
The lattice phase structure of a gauge theory can be a serious obstruction to Monte Carlo studies of its continuum behaviour. This issue is particularly delicate when numerical studies are performed to determine whether a theory is in a…
We calculate the $U(1)$ continuum gauge coupling using the values of action parameters at the multiple point in the phase diagram of a lattice gauge theory. The multiple point is where a maximum number of phases convene. We obtain for the…
We put forward a model, or rather a relatively broad class of models, beyond the Standard Model based on the two main assumptions: MPP) The coupling constants should be fixed such as to ensure that there be many ``vacuum states'', i.e.…
In the context of the standard SUSY GUT scenario, we present a detailed analysis of the softly broken finite supersymmetric grand unified theory. The model, albeit non-minimal, remains very rigid due to the requirement of finiteness. It is…
