We analyze in detail supersymmetry breaking by compactification of the fifth dimension in M-theory in the compactification pattern $11d \to 5d \to 4d$ and find that a superpotential is generated for the complex fields coming from $5d$…

Supersymmetry and supergravity extend the standard model by introducing a new symmetry between fermions and bosons. Experimental data imply that supergravity must be broken. Among several mechanisms of supersymmetry breaking, gravity…

Supersymmetric Standard Models (SSMs) with Dirac gauginos have the appealing supersoft property that they only cause finite contributions to scalar masses. Considering gauge mediated SUSY breaking with conformal sequestering and assuming…

In the present thesis I studied the phenomenology arising from a class of string models called sequestered compactifications, which were born with the aim of getting low-energy SUSY from strings. This is not an easy task if combined with…
We consider scenarios where strong conformal dynamics constitutes the ultraviolet completion of the physics that drives electroweak symmetry breaking. We show that in theories where the operator responsible for the breaking of conformal…
We study the effect of integrating out the heavy fields in a supersymmetric GUT which does not contain small mass parameters in the limit of exact supersymmetry. The trilinear ($A$) and bilinear ($B$) coefficients of the supersymmetry…
