We construct a supersymmetric SO(10) model, where natural doublet-triplet splitting implemented via the Dimopoulos-Wilczek mechanism is stable under the addition of 126+\bar{126} Higgs superfields needed to generate the small neutrino…
We construct a three family flipped SU(5) model from the heterotic string theory compactified on the $\Z_{12-I}$ orbifold with one Wilson line. The gauge group is $\rm SU(5)\times U(1)_X\times U(1)^2\times[SU(2)\times SO(10)\times…
A complete set of Higgs and matter superfields is introduced with well-defined SO(10) properties and U(1) \times Z_2 \times Z_2 family charges from which the Higgs and Yukawa superpotentials are constructed. The Higgs fields solve the…
In Calabi-Yau string compactification, it is pointed out that there exists a new type of $SU(5) \times U(1)^2$ model (the aligned $SU(5) \times U(1)^2$ model) in which the $SU(5)$ differs from the standard $SU(5)$ and also from the flipped…
We investigate supersymmetric SU(5) grand-unified theories (GUTs) realized in 5 space-time dimensions and broken down to the MSSM by SU(5)-violating boundary conditions on a S^1/(Z_2 x Z_2') orbifold with two 3-branes. The doublet-triplet…
In this paper we construct supersymmetric flipped SU(5) GUTs from E_8 singularities in F-theory. We start from an SO(10) singularity unfolded from an E_8 singularity by using an SU(4) spectral cover. To obtain realistic models, we consider…
It has been shown that the Dimopoulos-Wilczek (or missing-VEV) mechanism for doublet-triplet splitting can be implemented in $SU(5) \times SU(5)$ models, which requires no adjoint Higgs fields. This is an advantage from the point of view of…
We study the feasibility of realizing supersymmetric new inflation model, introduced by Senoguz and Shafi in [1], for $SU(5)$ and flipped $SU(5)$ models of grand unified theories (GUTs). This realization requires an additional $U(1)_R…
We investigate the presence of discrete gauge symmetries in Grand Unification models based in $SO(10)$ and $E_6$. These models include {\it flipped} and {\it unflipped} $SU(5)$, $SU(4)\!\times\! SU(2)_L\!\times\! SU(2)_R$,…
Various ideas support the notion that the GUT gauge group might be a semi-simple direct-product group such as $SU(5) \times SU(5)$. The doublet-triplet splitting problem can be solved with a direct product group. String theory suggests that…
We investigate composite two Higgs doublet models realized as pseudo Goldstone modes, generated through the spontaneous breaking of a global symmetry due to strong dynamic at the TeV scale. A detailed comparative survey of two possible…
The t-b-tau unification with positive Higgs mass parameter \mu\ in the minimal supersymmetric standard model prefers "just so" Higgs splitting and a light gluino < 500 GeV which appears to be ruled out by the recent LHC searches. We…
We analyse the prospects for constructing hybrid models of inflation that provide a dynamical realisation of the apparent closeness between the supersymmetric GUT scale and the possible scale of cosmological inflation. In the first place,…
We consider five dimensional (5D) supersymmetric SO(10) compactified on the orbifold $S^1/(Z_2\times Z_2')$ such that the SO(10) gauge symmetry is broken on both fixed points (branes), and the residual gauge symmetry is $SU(3)_c\times…
We describe a non-supersymmetric orbifold GUT based on SU(5) symmetry. It is a modification of Kawamura's 5-D orbifold GUT model. The difference lies in the choice of Higgs scalars as we have allowed only 5-plets of SU(5) in the GUT scale.…
The Pentagon Model is an explicit supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, which involves a new strongly-interacting SU(5) gauge theory at TeV-scale energies. We show that the Pentagon can be embedded into an SU(5) x SU(5) x SU(5)…
The doublet-triplet splitting problem in supersymmetric grand unified theories is elegantly solved in a supersymmetric SO(10)_GUT x SO(6)_H model. In this model, the gauginos in the supersymmetric standard model do not respect the usual GUT…
We propose a mechanism for sufficient suppression of dimension-5 operators for proton decay in a supersymmetric SO(10) model. This mechanism is analogue to the double seesaw mechanism in studying neutrino masses. Only an intermediate VEV…
We study gauge symmetry breaking patterns of the five-dimensional $SU(5)$ grand gauge-Higgs unification compactified on an orbifold $S^1/{\mathbb Z}_2$ with the Hosotani mechanism in the framework of the diagonal embedding method. We find…
In this article, we bypass the detailed symmetry breaking pathways established in [1]. Instead, a direct route from the Spin(10) model to the Standard Model is enabled via a single algebraic constraint. This single constraint, however, may…
