In order to explain the fermions masses and mixing parameters appearing in the lepton sector of the Standard Model, one proposes the extension of its symmetry. A discrete, non-abelian subgroup of $U(3)$ is added to the gauge group…
In this paper we propose a possible explanation to the Fermion mass hierarchy problem by fitting the type-II seesaw mechanism into the Higgs doublet sector, such that their vacuum expectation values are hierarchal. We extend the Standard…
We consider the simplest model of $SU(3) \times SU(2) \times U(1)_Y \times U(1)_R$ gauge symmetry with one extra singlet field whose vacuum expectation value breaks the horizontal $R$-symmetry $U(1)_R$ and gives rise to Yukawa textures. The…
Using an effective Lagrangian approach we analyze a generic Higgsless model with composite heavy fermions, transforming as SU(2)_{L+R} Doublets. Assuming that the Standard Model fermions acquire mass through mixing with the new heavy…
We propose a multiplicative formulation of the Higgs Lagrangian, derived from the inverse problem in the calculus of variations, as an alternative framework to investigate the fermion mass hierarchy. In this setup, fermion masses emerge as…
In the Standard Model of elementary particles the fermions are assumed to be intrinsically massless. Here we propose a new theoretical idea of fermion mass generation (other than by the Higgs mechanism) through the coupling with the vector…
We extend the $SU(3)_c \times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y$ standard model by a $U(1)_{Y'}$ gauge symmetry. Three right-handed neutrinos are introduced to cancel the gauge anomaly. One Higgs singlet is responsible for spontaneously breaking the…
Despite its great success in explaining the basic interactions of nature, the standard model suffers from an inability to explain the observed masses of the fundamental particles and the weak mixing angles between them. We shall survey a…
The supersymmetric $SU(6)$ model equipped by the flavour-blind discrete gauge symmetry $Z_3$ is considered. It provides simultaneous solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem, $\mu$-problem and leads to natural understanding of…
While the properties of the observed Higgs boson agree with the Standard Model predictions, the hierarchy of fermion masses lacks an explanation within the model. In this work, we propose a fresh approach to this problem, involving a…
We describe a supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory based on the gauge group $\SU(5)^3$, or $\SO(10)^3$, invariant under the interchange of any~SU(5), or~SO(10), with each family multiplet transforming non trivially under one different…
We investigate an extension of the Standard Model (SM) incorporating a gauge $ U(1) $ horizontal symmetry that is free of anomalies. This extension introduces four additional un-Higgsed scalar doublets that do not develop vacuum expectation…
In the context of the minimal SO(5) linear {\sigma}-model, a complete renormalizable Lagrangian -including gauge bosons and fermions- is considered, with the symmetry softly broken to SO(4). The scalar sector describes both the electroweak…
We present a complete, calculable, and phenomenologically viable model of dynamical supersymmetry breaking. The model is a simple extension of the so called 3-2 model, with gauge group SU(3)xSU(2)xG_SM and the MSSM fields directly coupled…
The family symmetry $SU(3)\otimes U(1)$ is proposed to solve flavor problems about fermion masses and flavor mixings. It's breaking is implemented by some flavon fields at the high-energy scale. In addition a discrete group $Z_{2}$ is…
The gauge symmetry of the Standard Model is SU(3)_c x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y for unknown reasons. One aspect that can be addressed is the low dimensionality of all its subgroups. Why not much larger groups like SU(7), or for that matter, SP(38)…
A nonuniversal abelian extension $\mathrm{U(1)}_{X}$ free from chiral anomalies is introduced into the Standard Model (SM), in order to evaluate its suitability in addressing the fermion mass hierarchy (FMH) by using seesaw mechanisms…
We discuss a supersymmetric unified model based on a product gauge group SU(5)\times SU(5)\times SU(5), where the gauge symmetry breaking is achieved without the adjoint or higher-dimensional Higgs field, and the doublet-triplet splitting…
We analyze all the possible continuous horizontal gauge groups G_H in relation with their possibility to explain m_b<<m_t. We assume that the only effective fermionic degrees of freedom correspond to the known fermions but allow the…
We suggest a simple grand unified theory where the fifth dimensional coordinate is compactified on an $S_1/(Z_2 \times Z_2')$ orbifold. This model is based on the supersymmetric flipped $SU(5) \times U(1)$ grand unified theory, which can…
