Triplet-mediated proton decay in Grand Unified Theories (GUTs) is usually suppressed by arranging a large triplet mass. Here we explore instead a mechanism for suppressing the couplings of the triplets to the first and second generations…
Using a simple Asymptotically Strong N=1 Susy SU(2) Gauge theory coupled to a {\bf{5}}-plet Chiral superfield we demonstrate the plausibility of the `` truly minimal '' Asymptotically Strong Grand Unification scenario proposed by us…
We discuss local \R-symmetry as a potentially powerful new model building tool. We first review and clarify that a $U(1)$ \R-symmetry can only be gauged in local and not in global supersymmetry. We determine the anomaly-cancellation…
The requirement of Yukawa coupling unification highly constrains the SUSY parameter space. In several SUSY breaking scenarios it is hard to reconcile Yukawa coupling unification with experimental constraints from B(b->s gamma) and the muon…
The consequences of assuming the third-generation Yukawa couplings are all large and comparable are studied in the context of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. General aspects of the RG evolution of the parameters,…
Given the tremendous phenomenological success of the Standard Model (SM) framework, it becomes increasingly important to understand to what extent its specific structure dynamically emerges from unification principles. In this study, we…
We consider $b$-$\tau$ unification in supersymmetric $SU(5)$ grand unified theories (GUTs) with extra matters. The renormalization group runnings of $b$ and $\tau$ Yukawa coupling constants may be significantly affected by the existence of…
Within supersymmetric SU(5) Grand Unified Theory, we present several new scenarios with anomaly free flavor symmetry U(1)_F. Within each scenario, a variety of cases offer many possibilities for phenomenologically interesting model…
The doublet-triplet splitting problem can be simply solved in product-group GUT models, using a global symmetry that distinguishes the doublets from the triplets. Apart from giving the required mass hierarchy, this ``triplet symmetry'' can…
We classify all the phenomenologically viable fermion mass matrices coming from a spontaneously broken abelian symmetry $ U(1)_X, $ with one and two additional chiral fields of opposite charges $ X=\pm 1. $ We find that the non-trivial…
Talk given at Frontiers in Particle Physics Conference, Cargese. In this paper, I provide some motivation for supersymmetric grand unified theories, briefly explain an extension of the standard model based on them and present a calculation…
Noscale supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking model is investigated in the minimal extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) with a gauged U(1)_{B-L} symmetry. We specifically consider a unification-inspired model with the gauge…
We present an example of the gauge mediated SUSY breaking flipped SU(5) model. The messengers of the SUSY breaking are either only colour triplets which belong to the minimal content of the scalar supermultiplets or together with triplets…
We consider fermion masses and mixings in a renormalizable SUSY SO(10) GUT with Yukawa couplings of scalar fields in the representation 10 + 120 + 126 bar. We investigate a scenario defined by the following assumptions: i) A single large…
The supersymmetric finite threshold effects are studied in the presence of non minimal soft terms that can correct the problematic mass ratios of the light generations in the minimal SU(5) GUT. We show that with large soft A-terms, one can…
We start a systematic investigation of the possibility to have supersymmetry (SUSY) to be an asymptotic state of the gauge theory in the high energy (UV) limit, due to the renormalization group running of coupling constants of the theory.…
A fermion mass matrix ansatz is proposed in the context of Grand Unified Supersymmetric Theories (GUTs). The fermion mass matrices are evolved down to the electroweak scale by solving the renormalization group equations for the gauge and…
We propose a renormalisable model based on $\Delta(27)$ family symmetry with an $SO(10)$ grand unified theory (GUT) leading to a novel form of spontaneous geometrical CP violation. The symmetries, including $\Delta(27)$ and $\mathbb{Z}_{9}…
We present a detailed analysis of how a mixed-anomaly-free U(1) symmetry can be used to both resolve the slepton mass problem associated with Anomaly Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking and generate the fermion mass hierarchy via the…
We present a new solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem which also works in a supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified theory and is testable at TeV-scale collider experiments. In our model, the SU(5) symmetry is broken through the…
