We report on the progress in the study of a five-dimensional SU(2) Gauge-Higgs Unification model. In this non-perturbative study, the Higgs mechanism is triggered by the spontaneous breaking of a global symmetry. In the same region of the…
A product SU(5)xSp(4) grand unified model is proposed with no fundamental Higgs fields transforming under SU(5). Higgs doublets are instead embedded into a four dimensional representation of the Sp(4) gauge group, and hence there is no…

We construct an extension of the recently proposed dynamical model for the breaking of SU(5)$_{\rm GUT}$ gauge symmetry, in which a pair of massless chiral supermultiplets for Higgs doublets are naturally obtained. We point out that a model…
We examine the finite-temperature deconfinement phase transition of (2+1)-dimensional SU(5) Yang-Mills theory via non-perturbative lattice simulations. Unsurprisingly, we find that the transition is of first order, however it appears to be…
