In this letter, we introduce a new approach to formulate the family structure of the standard model. Trying to mimic the highly contrained representation structure of the standard model while extending the symmetry, we propose a…
Consequences of explicit symmetry breaking in a physically motivated model of SU(N) antiferromagnet in spatial dimensions one and two are studied. It is shown that the case N=3, which can be realized in spin-1 cold atom systems, displays…
An anomaly free non-universal $U(1)_{X}$ extension to the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is proposed, where additional two $SU(2)$ doublet superfields and four singlet superfields complement the scalar sector of the model. The…
We discuss a supersymmetric extension of the standard model with an extra U(1) gauge symmetry. In this model, the proton stability is guaranteed by the gauge symmetry without invoking R parity. The gauge symmetry breakdown automatically…
It is suggested that various hierarchy problems in supersymmetric standard model, i.e. the Yukawa hierarchies, the \mu problem, and the suppression of dangerous baryon and/or lepton number (B/L) violating couplings, are resolved altogether…
We study the constraints on models with extra dimensions arising from local anomaly cancellation. We consider a five-dimensional field theory with a U(1) gauge field and a charged fermion, compactified on the orbifold S^1/(Z_2 x Z_2'). We…
There is no reason why the gauge symmetry extension is family universal as in the standard model and the most well-motivated models, e.g. left-right symmetry and grand unification. Hence, we propose a simplest extension of the standard…
We explore the anomaly-cancellation constraints on simplified dark matter (DM) models with an extra U(1)$^\prime$ gauge boson $Z'$. We show that, if the Standard Model (SM) fermions are supplemented by a single DM fermion $\chi$ that is a…
We examine the question of how baryogenesis can occur in lattice models of the Standard Model where there is a global $U(1)$ symmetry which is accompanied by an exactly conserved fermion number. We demonstrate that fermion creation and…
In this thesis, we study aspects of D-brane realizations of the Standard Model. Specifically, we study orientifold models with rotation and translation elements that break supersymmetry, provide the general consistency conditions and derive…
The non-perturbative constraints imposed by intrinsic fermionic non-invertible symmetries in 1+1 dimensional gapped systems remain largely unexplored. In this letter, we propose the superstrip algebra as a unified framework to catalog the…
We look for minimal chiral sets of fermions beyond the standard model that are anomaly free and, simultaneously, vectorlike particles with respect to colour SU(3) and electromagnetic U(1). We then study whether the addition of such…
We consider 1+1 dimensional SU(N) gauge theory coupled to a multiplet of massive Dirac fermions transforming in the adjoint representation of the gauge group. The only global symmetry of this theory is a U(1) associated with the conserved…
We study superpaticle models with fermionic gauge symmetry on the coset spaces of the $SU(1,1|N)$ supergroup. We first construct $SU(1,1|N)$ supersymmetric extension of a particle on $AdS_2$ possessing the $\kappa$-symmetry. Including…
We discuss some phenomenological aspects of gauged supersymmetric $\gs$--models on homogeneous coset-spaces $\ESO$ and $SO(10)/U(5)$ which are some of the most interesting for phenomenology. We investigate in detail the vacuum…
We investigate anomalies on heterotic orbifolds and their blowups. We give a simple example of an orbifold blowup which contains anomalous U(1) symmetries that are canceled by axions which couple non-universally to the different gauge…
This chapter is an introduction to the Free Fermionic Formulation of String Theory, with emphasis on heterotic model building. After a brief review of bosonization in two dimensional conformal field theories, we discuss how internal bosonic…
An attempt is made at a systematic approach to anomaly matching problem in non-Abelian electric-magnetic duality in N=1 supersymmetric QCD. A strategy we employ is somewhat analogous to anomaly analyses in grand unified models where the…
We build a supersymmetric version with $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(2)_L\otimes U(1)_{Y^\prime}\otimes U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry, where $Y^\prime$ is a new charge and $B$ and $L$ are the usual baryonic and leptonic numbers. The model has three…
We study the consequences of cancellation of cubic Abelian anomalies in F-theory GUT models that utilise hypercharge flux in the presence of additional U(1) symmetries. We show that a mixed anomaly between the hypercharge and two U(1) gauge…
