Recently, refinements have been made on both the theoretical and experimental determinations of the i.) mass of the lightest Higgs scalar, ii.) relic density of cold dark matter in the universe, iii.) branching fraction for radiative B…
We have combined perturbative unitarity and renormalisation group equation arguments in order to find a dynamical way to constrain the space of the gauge couplings ($g'_1$, $\widetilde{g}$) of the so-called "Minimal $Z'$ Models". We have…
We examine trilinear gauge boson couplings (TGCs) in the context of the $SU(3)_W\otimes U(1)'$ gauge-Higgs unification scenario. The TGCs play important roles in the probes of the physics beyond the standard model, since they are highly…
We introduce a new approach for studying unified supergravity models. In this approach all the parameters of the grand unified theory (GUT) are fixed by imposing the corresponding number of low energy observables. This determines the…
We revisit the no-scale mechanism in the context of the simplest no-scale supergravity extension of the Standard Model. This model has the usual five-dimensional parameter space plus an additional parameter $\xi_{3/2}\equiv…
We use the framework of asymptotic safety above the Planck scale to constrain the parameter space of simple models of new physics that can accommodate the measured value of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and the relic density of…
While the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model (CMSSM) with universal gaugino masses, m_{1/2}, scalar masses, m_0, and A-terms, A_0, defined at some high energy scale (usually taken to be the GUT scale) is motivated by general…
We discuss the unification of the bottom quark and tau lepton Yukawa couplings within the framework of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model. We compare the allowed regions of the $m_t$-$\tan \beta$ plane to those in the minimal…
We present a detailed discussion of the particle spectrum of the Non-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), containing two Higgs doublets and a singlet, in the limit $\tan\beta \simeq m_t/m_b$. This is compared with the…
In a previous paper we have developed a novel method in order to parametrize the effect of the large number of HETs into as fewer parameters as possible. Apart from its obvious advantages this parametrization serves as a vehicle for the…
New data on the anomalous magnetic moment a_mu of the muon together with the b->s gamma decay rate are considered within the supergravity inspired constrained minimal supersymmetric model. We perform a global statistical chi^2 analysis of…
We calculate the likelihood map in the full 7 dimensional parameter space of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) assuming universal boundary conditions on the supersymmetry breaking terms. Simultaneous variations of m_0, A_0,…
We show that within the framework of the minimal $SU(5)$ supergravity model, radiatively-induced electroweak symmetry breaking and presently available experimental lower bounds on nucleon decay, impose severe constraints on the available…
Extending the usual Ginzburg-Landau theory for the random-field Ising model, the possibility of dimensional reduction is reconsidered. A renormalization group for the probability distribution of magnetic impurities is applied. New…
We discuss a novel approach to renormalize the Electroweak Sector of the Standard Model, in which \sin^2\theta_{eff}, measured at the Z^0 peak, is identified with the basic renormalized electroweak mixing parameter. This approach shares the…
We present new upper limits on the light Higgs boson mass mh in supersymmetric models. We consider two gravity-mediated models (with and without universal scalar masses) and two gauge-mediated models (with a 5+5 or 10+10 messenger sector).…
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.…
We investigate various classes of Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking models and show that the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model can solve the mu-problem in a phenomenologically acceptable way. These models include scenarios…
We perform a detailed study of the constraints from $b\to s\gamma$ on a large class of supergravity models, including generic four-parameter supergravity models, the minimal $SU(5)$ supergravity model, and $SU(5)\times U(1)$ supergravity.…
