Family Replicated Gauge Group models of the type SU(n)^N\times SU(m)^N, (SMG)^3 and (SMG\times U(1)_{B-L})^3 are reviewed, where SMG=SU(3)_{c}\times SU(2)_{L}\times U(1)_{Y} is the gauge symmetry group of the Standard Model, $B$ is the…
We consider six-dimensional supergravity with gauge group $SO(10)\times U(1)_A$, compactified on the orbifold $T^2 / \mathbb{Z}_2$. Three quark-lepton generations arise as zero modes of a bulk $\bf16$-plet due to magnetic flux of the…
Intersecting D6-brane models without discrete torsion typically suffer from unstabilized open string moduli, arising from D-brane positions and Wilson lines. These moduli generate additional massless adjoint fields, obstructing the…
We construct a family of exactly solvable spin models that illustrate a novel mechanism for fractionalization in topologically ordered phases, dubbed the string flux mechanism. The essential idea is that an anyon of a topological phase can…
We study 10D super Yang-Mills E8 theory on the 6D torus compactification with magnetic fluxes. We study systematically the possibilities for realizing 4D supersymmetric standard models with three generations of quarks and leptons. We also…
We propose 4 and 12 supersymmetric Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theories on $\mathrm{R\times CP^2}$ obtained by twisted $\mathrm{Z}_k$ moddings and dimensional reduction of the 6d (2,0) superconformal field theories on $\mathrm{R\times S^5}$.…
We briefly review the effective field theory of massive composite particles, their gauge couplings and characteristic energy scale in the UV-domain of UV-stable fixed point of strong four-fermion coupling, then mainly focus the discussions…
The appearance of a generalized (or Borcherds-) Kac-Moody algebra in the spectrum of BPS dyons in N=4, d=4 string theory is elucidated. From the low-energy supergravity analysis, we identify its root lattice as the lattice of the T-duality…
Recently a gauged two Higgs doublet model, in which the two Higgs doublets are embedded into the fundamental representation of an extra local $SU(2)_H$ group, is constructed. Both the new gauge bosons $Z^\prime$ and $W^{\prime (p,m)}$ are…
In this work, we propose a modern view of the integer spin simple currents which have played a central role in discrete torsion. We reintroduce them as nonanomalous composite particles constructed from $Z_{N}$ parafermionic field theories.…
Muon spin relaxation ($\mu$SR) studies of the "1111" and "122" FeAs systems have detected static magnetism with variably sized ordered moments in their parent compounds. The phase diagrams of FeAs, CuO, organic BEDT, A$_{3}$C$_{60}$ and…
We study proton decay in a supersymmetric {\sf SO(10)} gauge theory in six dimensions compactified on an orbifold. The dimension-5 proton decay operators are forbidden by R-symmetry, whereas the dimension-6 operators are enhanced due to the…
We point out that the dynamical fermion mass generation in the 3D compact U(1) lattice gauge theory with charged fermion and scalar fields (chi-U-phi_3 model) may be of relevance for the spinon-holon theory with local gauge symmetry in the…
We explored a variety of brane configurations in our previous paper within the two derivative truncation of the unstable D9-brane effective theory. In this paper we extend our previous results with emphasis on the inclusion of the higher…
We emphasise that charged slepton pairs produced via vector-boson fusion along with two high-mass, high-$p_T$ forward/backward jets (in two opposite hemispheres) can have a higher production cross-section for heavy slepton masses than that…
According to a recent classification of 6d (1,0) theories within F-theory there are only six "pure" 6d gauge theories which have a UV superconformal fixed point. The corresponding gauge groups are $SU(3),SO(8),F_4,E_6,E_7$, and $E_8$. These…
A discrete non-linear $\sigma$-model is obtained by triangulate both the space-time $M^{d+1}$ and the target space $K$. If the path integral is given by the sum of all the complex homomorphisms $\phi: M^{d+1} \to K$, with an partition…
We construct new exact BPS solitons in various noncommutative gauge theories by the ``gauge'' transformation of known BPS solitons. This ``gauge'' transformation introduced by Harvey, Kraus and Larsen adds localized solitons to the known…
A search is presented for resonant production of second-generation sleptons ($\tilde{\mu}_L$, $\tilde{\nu}_\mu$) via the $R$-parity-violating coupling $\lambda'_{211}$ to quarks, in events with two same-sign muons and at least two jets in…
We obtain from the quark-gluon dynamics, the Gell'Mann-Ne'eman eightfold way baryons in an imaginary-time functional integral formulation of 3+1 lattice QCD in the strong coupling regime (small hopping parameter $\kappa>0$). The model has…
