The group SU(3) is parameterized in terms of generalized ``Euler angles''. The differential operators of SU(3) corresponding to the Lie Algebra elements are obtained, the invariant forms are found, the group invariant volume element is…
We analyze approaches to the partial or complete unification of gauge symmetries in theories with dynamical symmetry breaking. Several types of models are considered, including those that (i) involve sufficient unification to quantize…
Motivated by the simplicity and direct phenomenological applicability of field-theoretic orbifold constructions in the context of grand unification, we set out to survey the immensely rich group-theoretical possibilities open to this type…
We explore the recently proposed gauge symmetry \( SU(3)_C \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes SU(3)_R \otimes U(1)_X \), which naturally embeds both the Left-Right symmetric model and the 3-3-1 model as subgroups. Within this unified framework, we…
I summarise what recent lattice calculations tell us about the large-N limit of SU(N) gauge theories in 3+1 dimensions. The focus is on confinement, how close SU(oo) is to SU(3), new stable strings at larger N, deconfinement, topology and…
We will outline our recent efforts aimed at analysing a class of models known as orbifold GUTs and their phenomenology in a variety of minimal and non-minimal settings. We examine the minimal SU(5) models, rule them out, and proceed by…
We examine a $SU(3)_c \otimes SU(3)_{L}\otimes U(1)$ gauge model which has a parity symmetric Lagrangian. The parity symmetry has the novel feature that it interchanges the gluons with the $SU(3)_L$ gauge bosons (which contain the ordinary…
We comment a model based on the $SU(3)_c \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry recently proposed by Frampton. We stressed that the analysis of flavor changing neutral currents impose strong constraints on th emasses of the new…
Lepton number violation and its relation to neutrino masses is investigated in several versions of the $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_x$ model. Spontaneous and explicit violation and conservation of the lepton number are considered. In…
We propose a model which unifies the Left-Right symmetry with the $SU(3)_L$ gauge group, called flipped trinification, and based on the $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes SU(3)_R\otimes U(1)_X$ gauge group. The model inherits the interesting…
In this work we present an extension of the Standard model as a local gauge group SU(3)c x SU(4)L x U(1)X embedded in SU(3)c x SU(4)L x U(1)Y0 x U(1)B-L gauge group. The U(1)Y0 gauge symmetry is introduced to obtain an anomaly-free three-…
We outline the basic setting of the U(3)_C \times Sp(1)_L \times U(1)_L \times U(1)_R gauge theory and review the associated phenomenological aspects related to experimental searches for new physics at hadron colliders.
The natural partial ordering of the orbit types of the action of the group of local gauge transformations on the space of connections in space-time dimension d<=4 is investigated. For that purpose, a description of orbit types in terms of…
In this report the SU(3)_C X SU(3)_L X U(1)_X gauge model with minimal scalar sector, two Higgs triplets, is presented in detail. One of the vacuum expectation values $u$ is a source of lepton-number violations and a reason for mixing among…
The interactions between gluons are important in theories such as quantum chromodynamics. Therefore, to rediscover new features of well known methods in order to investigate the SU(3) gauge group can be a new way to deal with Yang-Mills…
The definition and computation of the topological susceptibility in non-abelian gauge theories is complicated by the presence of non-integrable short-distance singularities. Recently, alternative representations of the susceptibility were…
Based on a specific model with U(3) family gauge symmetry at $10^3$ TeV scale, we show its experimental signatures to search for. Since the gauge symmetry is introduced with a special purpose, its gauge coupling constant and gauge boson…
We build a supersymmetric version of a recently proposed SU(3)xSU(3)xU(1)X model with heavy charged lepton and no bilepton gauge bosons.The model is an anomaly free, three generation extension of the Standard model with SU(3)L x U(1)gauge…
We present the results of a global analysis of a class of models with an extended electroweak gauge group of the form SU(2) x SU(2) x U(1), often denoted as G(221) models, which include as examples the left-right, the lepto-phobic, the…
We have continued our systematic investigations of the numerical simulations of lattice gauge theories in the dual formulation. These include: i) a more practical implementation of the quasi-local updating technique, ii) a thorough…
