We consider a five dimensional SU(2) gauge theory with fermions in the bulk and with additional SU(2) and U(1) kinetic terms on the branes. The electroweak breaking is obtained by boundary conditions. After deconstruction, fermions in the…
We consider the U(1)$_X$ model, which can induce the flavor violating couplings through vectorlike fermions and address the observed rare $B$-meson decay anomalies. To be consistent with all the other observations, both the associated gauge…
We make a comprehensive analysis of an extended supersymmetric model(ESSM) obtained by adding a pair of vector-like families to the minimal supersymmetric standard model and having specific forms of 5 x 5 fermion mass matrices. The singlet…
Minimal dark matter is an attractive candidate for dark matter because it is stabilized without the need to impose additional symmetries. It is known that the $SU(2)_L$ quintuplet fermion can serve as a minimal dark matter candidate, with…
A new class of models of dynamical supersymmetry breaking is proposed. The models are based on SU(N_C) gauge theories with N_F(<N_C) flavors of quarks and singlets. Dynamically generated superpotential exibits runaway behavior. By embedding…
We explore aspects of the phase structure of SU(2) and SU(3) lattice gauge theories at strong coupling with many flavours $N_f$ of Wilson fermions in the fundamental representation. The pseudoscalar meson mass as a function of hopping…
We study renormalizable extensions of the standard model that contain vector-like fermions in a (single) complex representation of the standard model gauge group. There are 11 models where the vector-like fermions Yukawa couple to the…
We present a model based on the $SU(3)_{C}\otimes SU(3)_{L}\otimes U(1)_{X}$ gauge symmetry having an extra $T_{7}\otimes Z_{2}\otimes Z_{3}\otimes Z_{14} $ flavor group, which successfully describes the observed SM fermion mass and mixing…
We consider a supersymmetric SO(10) model with a SU(3) symmetry of flavour in which fermion masses emerge via the see-saw mixing with superheavy fermions in 16+16bar representations. In this model the dangerous D=5 operators of proton decay…
We discuss weak coupling perturbation theory for lattice actions in which the fermions couple to smeared gauge links. The normally large integrals that appear in lattice perturbation theory are drastically reduced. Even without detailed…
This work provides an overview on the current status of phenomenology and searches for heavy vector-like quarks, which are predicted in many models of new physics beyond the Standard Model. Searches at Tevatron and at the LHC, here listed…
We summarize methods and expected accuracies in determining the basic low-energy SUSY parameters from experiments at future e$^+$e$^-$ linear colliders in the TeV energy range, combined with results from LHC. In a second step we demonstrate…
We study a minimal extension to the Standard Model with an additional real scalar triplet, $\Sigma$, and a single vector-like quark, $T$. This class of models appear naturally in extensions of the Littlest Higgs model that incorporate dark…
The extra contributions due to an extra generation of vector-like quarks to the isospin symmetry breaking observable associated with the radiative B->K^* \gamma decay is obtained. It is shown that this additional contribution is sensitive…
In the linear moose framework, which naturally emerges in deconstruction models, we show that there is a unique solution for the vanishing of the $S$ parameter at the lowest order in the weak interactions. We consider an effective gauge…
We propose a mechanism that the soft supersymmetry breaking masses can be induced from the dynamical rearrangement of local U(1) symmetry in a five-dimensional model. The U(1) symmetry possesses several extraordinary features. The…
The present approach relies on the SM chiral symmetry breaking pattern $SU(2)_L\otimes SU(2)_R\to SU(2)_{L+R}$, with the EW Goldstone bosons given in a non-linear realization and the Higgs boson described by an EW singlet field. In…
Some versions of the electroweak SU(3)$_L\otimesU(1)_X$ models cannot be treated within perturbation theory at energies of few TeV. An extended version for these models is proposed which is perturbative even at TeV scale posing no…
Light dark matter with flavor-violating couplings to fermions may be copiously produced in the laboratory as missing energy from decays of SM particles. Here we study the effective Lagrangian of a light dark vector with generic dipole or…
