A dynamical symmetry breaking model of electroweak interactions is investigated based on strongly interacting fermions. Vector-like fermions of different representations of the weak SU(2) form a symmetry breaking condensate and generate the…

We apply the Cartan's supersymmetric model to the weak interaction of hadrons. The electromagnetic currents are transformed by $G_{12},G_{123},G_{13},G_{132}$ and the factor$(1-\gamma_5)$ is inserted between $l \bar\nu$ or $\bar l \nu$ when…

This study investigates the compatibility of the electroweak sector of particle physics with quantum gravity, under the assumption that the conventional S-matrix positivity bounds can be extended to gravitational context. It focuses on…

In this paper we consider very weakly interacting and ultra light scalar and pseudoscalar dark matter candidates. We show that quantum gravity has important implications for such models and that the masses of the singlet scalar and…

A specific new quark permits that flavor generations constitute a representation of the 3-dimensional SU(3) symmetry that characterizes the Z(3) orbifold. In this context, color and supergravity bind triplets and 4-tuplets into composite…

Starting with the hypothesis that quark and lepton mixings are identical at or near the GUT scale, we show that the large solar and atmospheric neutrino mixing angles together with the small reactor angle $U_{e3}$ can be understood purely…

I remark that the weak mixing angle in the standard model may be computed even in the absence of a grand unification symmetry. In particular, if there is an additional gauged $U(1)$ symmetry at some large scale which can be made…

A secluded U(1) gauge field, kinetically mixed with Standard Model hypercharge, provides a `portal' mediating interactions with a hidden sector at the renormalizable level, as recently exploited in the context of WIMP dark matter. The…

A brief overview of some of the last decade's developments in the Top-mode/Topcolor class of models is presented. In addition, a new Topcolor type scenario, named Top-Bottom Color, is suggested. A seesaw mechanism with new weak doublet…

Theoretical challenges to understand Dark Matter and Dark Energy suggest the existence of low-mass and weakly coupling fields in the universe. The quasi-parallel photon-photon collision system (QPS) can provide chances to probe the resonant…

We assume that weak bases of flavors (u, c)_{L,R}, (d,s)_{L,R}, (e, \mu) _{L,R}, (\nu_e, \nu_\mu)_{L,R} are the S_3 doublet and t_{L,R}, b_{L,R}, \tau_{L,R}, {\nu_\tau}_{L,R} are the S_3 singlet and further there are S_3 doublet Higgs…

The Electroweak interactions of a strongly coupled gauge theory are discussed with outlook beyond the Standard Model (BSM) under global and gauge anomaly constraints. The theory is built on a minimal massless fermion doublet of the SU(2)…

We study the effect of modified gravity on weak lensing in a class of scalar-tensor theory that includes $f(R)$ gravity as a special case. These models are designed to satisfy local gravity constraints by having a large scalar-field mass in…

We explore new physics scenarios which are optimally probed through precision Higgs measurements rather than direct collider searches. Such theories consist of additional electroweak charged or singlet states which couple directly to or mix…

Unified theories based on an extended left-right symmetric group, $SU(4) \times SU(2)^4$, are constructed in five dimensions. The compactification scale is assumed to be only a loop factor above the weak scale, so that the weak mixing angle…

The Standard Model (SM) with a light Higgs boson provides a very good description of the precision electroweak observable data coming from the LEP, SLD and Tevatron experiments. Most of the observables, with the notable exception of the…
