We extend to larger unification groups an earlier study exploring the possibility of unification of gauge symmetries in theories with dynamical symmetry breaking. Based on our results, we comment on the outlook for models that seek to…
We study the deviation of yukawa coupling in the gauge-Higgs unification scenario from the Standard Model one. Applying the obtained results to the tau and bottom yukawa couplings, we numerically calculate the signal strength of $gg \to H…
We investigate three different possibilities for improving the fermion mass relations that arise in grand unified theories (GUTs). Each scenario relies on supersymmetric loop effects alone, without modifying the naive Yukawa unification.…
We calculate the two-loop matching corrections for the gauge couplings at the Grand Unification scale in a general framework that aims at making as few assumptions on the underlying Grand Unified Theory (GUT) as possible. In this paper we…
We present the beta functions of gauge and Yukawa couplings in general four-dimensional quantum field theory, at four and three loops, respectively. The essence of our approach is fixing unknown coefficients in the most general ansatz for…

The two-loop ``top-down'' renormalization group flow for the top, bottom and tau Yukawa couplings is explored in the framework of supersymmetric grand unification; reproduction of the physical bottom and tau masses is required. Instead of…
We construct realistic theories in which the Higgs fields arise from extra dimensional components of higher dimensional gauge fields. In particular, we present a minimal 5D SU(3)_C x SU(3)_W model and a unified 5D SU(6) model. In both cases…
We examine the spectrum of superparticles obtained from the minimal SO(10) grand unified model, where it is assumed the gauge symmetry breaking yields the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) as the effective theory at $M_{GUT}\sim…
We review several problems of conventional Grand Unification and some new approaches. In particular, we discuss strongly coupled Grand Unified Theories. Standard Model may emerge as a low energy effective theory of composite particles in…
Grand Unified Theories predict relationships between the GUT-scale quark and lepton masses. Using new data in the context of the MSSM, we update the values and uncertainties of the masses and mixing angles for the three generations at the…
We analyze the two loop renormalization group equations in the standard model and its extensions for the coupling constants and the quark Yukawa couplings. The key point of our analysis is the observed hierarchy of the quark masses and the…
All members of a recently proposed new set of (non-supersymmetric) grand unified theories with at the one-loop level vanishing beta functions for the gauge, Yukawa, and scalar-boson self-interaction coupling constants are shown to involve,…
A remarkable achievement of the realistic superstring standard--like models is the successful prediction of the top quark mass, assuming the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model spectrum below the string scale. Recently it was shown that…
We study renormalization-group flows in Yukawa theories with massless fermions, including determination of fixed points and curves that separate regions of different flow behavior. We assess the reliability of perturbative calculations for…
Strong, electromagnetic, and weak forces were unified in the Standard Model (SM) with spontaneous gauge symmetry breaking. These forces were further conjectured to be unified in a simple Lie group gauge interaction in the Grand Unification…
The idea of reduction of couplings consists in searching for renormalization group invariant relations between parameters of a renormalizable theory that hold to all orders of perturbation theory. Based on the principle of the reduction of…
We propose a GUT model in which visible matter and messengers are treated in unified way what unavoidably leads to messenger-matter mixed Yukawa interactions. Influence of this mixing on the fermion masses and the weak mixing angles is…
Group theoretical factors from GUT symmetry breaking can lead to predictions for the ratios of quark and lepton masses (or Yukawa couplings) at the unification scale. Due to supersymmetric (SUSY) threshold corrections the viability of such…
