We present a new solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem which also works in a supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified theory and is testable at TeV-scale collider experiments. In our model, the SU(5) symmetry is broken through the…
A new superstring-motivated framework for a treatment of SU(N) SUSY GUTs is argued. We show that all the present difficulties of the minimal supersymmetric SU(5) model can successfully be overcome with a new renormalizable…
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…
The supersymmetric $SU(6)$ model accompanied by the flavour-blind discrete symmetry $Z_3$ can succesfully deal with such key problems of SUSY GUTs, as are the gauge hierarchy/doublet-triplet splitting, $\mu$-problem and flavour problem. The…
In this paper we analyse the doublet-triplet splitting problem in the minimal non-super-symmetric $SU(5)$ GUT. We take into account the full symmetry breaking pattern with both high scale $SU(5)$ breaking and electroweak symmetry breaking.…
The doublet-triplet splitting problem can be simply solved in product-group GUT models, using a global symmetry that distinguishes the doublets from the triplets. Apart from giving the required mass hierarchy, this ``triplet symmetry'' can…
After a brief review of the motivations for grand unification, I discuss the main challenges facing realistic SUSY GUT model building. Achieving doublet-triplet splitting without fine--tuning is chief among them. Symmetry breaking should…
We construct and discuss a "realistic" example of SUSY SU(5) GUT model, with an additional U(1) flavour symmetry, that is not plagued by the need of large fine tunings, like those associated with doublet-triplet splitting in the minimal…
The anomalous gauge $U(1)_A$ symmetry which could emerge in the context of the string theories can be very useful ingredient towards builting the complete supersymmetric SO(10) model. We present an example of the $SO(10)\times U(1)_A$ model…
A solution of the doublet-triplet splitting problem in the supersymmetric $SU(6)$ gauge theory is suggested. The `missing doublet' multiplet -- 175-plet of the $SU(6)$ group as well as the custodial $SU(2)_{cus}$ global symmetry play…
We briefly review the GIFT (Goltstones instead of Fine Tuning) mechanism which provides a promising solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem and some other puzzles of the supersymmetric grand unification as are the $\mu$-problem,…
We show how approximate Minimal Flavour Violation (MFV) can emerge from an SU(5) Supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (SUSY GUT) supplemented by an S4 x U(1) family symmetry, which provides a good description of all quark and lepton…
We present a realistic supersymmetric SU(6) model which implements doublet-triplet splitting by the missing vev mechanism. The model makes use of only the simplest representations, requires no fine tuning of parameters and maintains…
We propose an SU(5) SUSY GUT of flavour with A_4 family symmetry in 8d where the vacuum alignment is achieved in an elegant way by the use of boundary conditions on orbifolds. The model involves SU(5) living in the 8d bulk, with matter…
Understanding the origin of flavour hierarchies in the Standard Model remains an open problem, motivating extensions with non-trivial flavour symmetries. We unify deconstructed weak isospin $\mathrm{SU}(2)_\mathrm{L}^3$ into an…
The doublet--triplet mass splitting problem is one of the most serious problems in supersymmetric grand unified theories (GUTs). A class of models based on a product gauge group, such as the SU(5)_{GUT} times U(3)_H or the SU(5)_{GUT} times…
We show that as in the flipped SU(5) models, doublet-triplet splitting is realized by the missing partner mechanism in the flipped SO(10) models. The gauge group $SO(10)_F\times U(1)_{V'_F}$ includes $SU(2)_E$ gauge symmetry, that plays an…
We present a new class of unified SO(10) models where the GUT symmetry breaking down to the standard model gauge group involves just one scale, in contrast to the conventional SO(10) models which require two scales. Further, the models we…
