We consider a supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT) based on the gauge group SO(10) suggested by Aulakh et al., which features two--step intermediate symmetry breaking, $SO(10) \to SU(4)_C \times SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \to SU(3)_C…
Simple supersymmetric grand unified models based on the gauge group SO(10) require --in addition to gauge and matter unification-- the unification of t-b-\tau Yukawa couplings. Yukawa unification, however, only occurs for very special…
We trace the emergence of the ``New Minimal'' supersymmetric SO(10) GUT (NMSGUT) out of the debris created by our demonstration that the MSGUT is falsified by the data. The NMSGUT is based on ${\bf{210\oplus 10\oplus 120\oplus 126\oplus…
We present a renormalizable $SO(10)$ grand unified theory with a minimal Yukawa sector consisting of a $126_H$, a real $10_H$ and a real $120_H$, where $CP$ violation has a spontaneous origin. We show that the Yukawa sector in this setup,…
The phenomenological neutrino mass matrix for two-zero symmetric texture has been obtained and used to rule out all possible two-zero symmetric neutrino mass matrices obtained from Yukawa couplings to $\mathbf{10}$ and $\mathbf{126}$ Higgs…
We explore spontaneous CP violation (SCPV) in the minimal non-supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theory (GUT), with a scalar sector comprising a CP-even $45_H$, a $126_H$, and a complex $10_H$. All renormalizable couplings are real due to…
The status of top-bottom-tau Yukawa coupling unification in supersymmetric SO(10) models is reviewed with a particular emphasis on the implications of the Higgs boson mass in the vicinity of 125 GeV, as suggested by the LHC Higgs data. In…
We investigate a scenario in a supersymmetric SO(10) Grand Unified Theory in which the fermion mass matrices are generated by renormalizable Yukawa couplings of the $\mathbf{10} \oplus \mathbf{120} \oplus \bar{\mathbf{126}}$ representation…
CP violation, fermion masses and mixing angles including that of neutrinos are studied in an SUSY SO(10)$\times \Delta (48)\times$ U(1) model. The nonabelian SU(3) discrete family symmetry $\Delta(48)$ associated with a simple scheme of…
We extend the Zee model, where tiny neutrino masses are generated at the one loop level, to a supersymmetric model with R-parity conservation. It is found that the neutrino mass matrix can be consistent with the neutrino oscillation data…
Quark lepton universality inherent in grand unified theories based on $SO(10)$ gauge group generically leads to hierarchical neutrino masses. We propose a specific ansatz for the structure of Yukawa matrices in $SO(10)$ models which differ…
We study the constraints that electroweak precision data can impose, after the discovery of the Higgs boson by the LHC, on neutrinophilic two-Higgs-doublet models which comprise one extra $SU(2)\times U(1)$ doublet and a new symmetry,…
The only experimentally observed phenomenon that lies outside the standard model of the electroweak interaction is neutrino oscillations. A way to try to unify the extensive neutrino oscillation data is to add a phenomenological mass term…
We continue to investigate the minimal SO(10)xU(1)_H model which we proposed recently. Renormalization group analysis of the model results in natural predictions of quark-lepton masses and Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix along with neutrino…
We construct an explicit $SO(10) \times U(1)_F$ model of the Yukawa interactions by using as a guide previous phenomenological results obtained from a bottom-up approach to quark and lepton mass matrices. The global $U(1)_F$ family symmetry…
The successful prediction of $\sin^2\theta_W$ suggests that the effective theory beneath the GUT scale is the two-Higgs MSSM. If we further assume that the unified gauge group contains SO(10), that the two light Higgs doublets lie mostly in…
Current neutrino oscillation data indicate the existence of two large lepton mixing angles, while Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements are all small. Here we show how supersymmetric SO(10) with extra chiral singlets can easily reconcile large…
We have constructed an explicit see-saw model containing two singlet neutrinos, one carrying a $(B-3L_e)$ gauge charge with an intermediate mass scale of $\sim O(10^{10})$ GeV along with a sterile one near the GUT (grand unification theory)…
We investigate the consequences of generalized CP (GCP) symmetry within the context of the two Higgs doublet model (2HDM), specifically focusing on the lepton sector. Utilizing the Type-I seesaw framework, we study an intriguing connection…
We revisit a class of supersymmetric SO(10) models with t-b-tau Yukawa coupling unification condition, with emphasis on the prediction of the Higgs mass. We discuss qualitative features in this model that lead to a Higgs mass prediction…
