We propose a natural Higgs sector in E_6 grand unified theory (GUT) with anomalous U(1)_A gauge symmetry. In the scenario, the doublet-triplet splitting can be realized while the proton decay via dimension 5 operator is suppressed. The…
We propose to partially unify the sequential $SU(3)_c\times SU(3)_L\times U(1)_X$ model (with $\beta=1/\sqrt{3}$) into the flipped $SU(6)$ model with the gauge group $SU(6)\times U(1)_K$. Gauge anomaly cancellation can easily be satisfied.…

Without supersymmetry, the gauge couplings in the standard model with five Higgs doublets unify around 10^14 GeV. In this case, the trinified model, SU(3)_C x SU(3)_L x SU(3)_R x Z_3, with the minimal Higgs sector required for symmetry…
We present a minimal viable Gauge-Higgs Grand Unification scenario in warped space based on a $SU(6)$ bulk symmetry - unifying the gauge symmetries of the SM and their breaking sector. We show how the issue of light exotic new states is…
The logarithmic running of the gauge couplings alpha_1, alpha_2 and alpha_3, indicates that they may unify at some scale M_GUT ~ 10^16. This is often taken to imply that the standard model gauge group is embedded into some larger simple…
In a series of papers, we pointed out that an anomalous $U(1)_A$ gauge symmetry naturally solves various problems in grand unified theories (GUTs) and that a horizontal gauge symmetry, $SU(2)_H$ or $SU(3)_H$, not only realizes the…
We present phenomenological aspects of the simplest realistic SU(5) grand unified theory--the theory with the 5, 15, and 24 dimensional representations in the Higgs sector. We show that a successful gauge coupling unification sets…
Nucleon lifetimes for various decay modes via dimension 6 operators are calculated in the anomalous $U(1)_A$ GUT scenario, in which the unification scale $\Lambda_u$ becomes smaller than the usual supersymmetric (SUSY) unification scale…
We have recently proposed an alternative picture for the physics at the scale of gauge coupling unification, where the unified symmetry is realized in higher dimensions but is broken locally by a symmetry breaking defect. Gauge coupling…
In this talk, we introduce a new scenario of grand unified theory (GUT) with anomalous $U(1)_A$ gauge symmetry. Since generic interactions (including non-renormalizable interactions) are introduced, once we fix the symmetry of the theory,…
We investigate a 5D SU(6) grand gauge-Higgs unification model compactified on an orbifold S^1/Z_2. Ordinary quarks and leptons, together with right-handed neutrinos, are just accommodated into a minimal set of representations of the gauge…
Gauge-coupling unification is just as successful in the standard model with six Higgs doublets as it is in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. However, the gauge couplings unify at 10^14 GeV, which yields rapid proton decay in the…
Models of supersymmetric grand unified theories based on SU(5)_GUT \times U(N)_H gauge group (N = 2,3) have a symmetry that guarantees light Higgs doublets and absence of dimension-five proton decay operators. We analysed the proton decay…
We discuss the anomalous U(1) gauge symmetry as a mechanism of generating the grand-unification scale. We conclude that unification to a simple group cannot be realized unless some parameters are ``tuned'', and that models with product…
