One puzzle of neutrino masses and mixings is that they do not exhibit the kind of strong "hierarchy" that is found for the quarks and charged leptons. Neutrino mass ratios and mixing angles are not small. A possible reason for this is…
Considerations of massive neutrinos, baryogenesis as well as fermion mass textures in the grand unified theory framework provide strong motivations for supersymmetric(SUSY) SO(10) as the theory beyond the standard model. If one wants to…
Supersymmetric standard model with softly broken lepton symmetry provides a suitable framework to accommodate the solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies. This model contains a natural explanation for large mixing and hierarchal masses…
New data on neutrino masses is very exciting. It is the first evidence for physics beyond the standard model. In this talk we discuss this data and how it may (or may not) be used to constrain theories of charged fermion masses. The talk is…
Some features of SO(10) GUT models are reviewed, and a number of such models in the literature are compared. While some have been eliminated by recent neutrino data, others are presently successful in explaining the quark and lepton mass…
We review in this talk various SUSY SO(10) models. Specifically, we discuss how small neutrino masses are generated in and generic predictions of different SO(10) models. A comparison of the predictions of these models for…
Thanks to high precision long baseline neutrino experiments such as NO$\nu$A and DUNE, possible effects of Non-Standard neutrino Interactions (NSI) on neutrino oscillation data have received renewed interest in the last two years. It is…
Recent advances in cosmic observations have brought us to the verge of discovery of the absolute scale of neutrino masses. Nonzero neutrino masses are known evidence of new physics beyond the Standard Model. Our understanding of the…
We revisit a minimal renormalisable $SO(10)$ grand unified theory, with the Higgs representation $45_{\rm H}$, $126_{\rm H}$ and complex $10_{\rm H}$, responsible for the unification, intermediate and the weak scale symmetry breaking,…
Due to sphaleron processes in the high-temperature symmetric phase of the standard model the cosmological baryon asymmetry is related to neutrino properties. For hierarchical neutrino masses, with $B-L$ broken at the unification scale…
Majoron models provide neutrino masses via the spontaneous breaking of a global $U(1)$ symmetry. However, it may be argued that all global symmetries will be explicitly violated by gravitational effects. We show that it is possible to…
In this letter, we study the implications of precise gauge coupling unification on supersymmetric particle masses. We argue that precise unification favors the superpartner masses that are in the range of several TeV and well beyond. We…
We present a review of the present status of the problem of neutrino masses and mixing including a survey of theoretical motivations and models, experimental searches and implications of recently appeared solar and atmospheric neutrino…
We consider the problem of trying to understand the recently measured neutrino data simultaneously with understanding the heirarchical form of quark and charged lepton Yukawa matrices. We summarise the data that a sucessful model of…
Implications of the recent results on neutrino masses and mixing to underlying new physics are considered. Various approaches to physics behind neutrino mass are described which include the tri-bimaximal mixing and flavor symmetries, the…
I present a personal vision of what is essential in the field of neutrino mass, both from the point of view of what has been achieved and what could lie ahead. In the process, I offer a logical, theoretical and phenomenological rationale…
A simple extension of the minimal renormalizable supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theory by adding a 120-dimensional Higgs representation is examined. This brings new antisymmetric contributions to the relevant quark and lepton mass sum…
In a previous paper (hep-th/9801040), the superconnection formalism was used to fit the Higgs field into a U(n) gauge theory with particular emphasis on the n=2 case, aiming at the reconstruction of certain parts of the Standard Model. The…
We comment on the status and prospects of the minimal non-supersymmetric renormalizable SO(10) grand unified model. We emphasize its unique predictive power owing to the particular robustness of the gauge unification pattern to the…
Mechanism for generation of suppressed neutrino masses, within low scale theories, is considered. The mechanism do not have extradimensional nature and is realized through extended $SU(2)_L$ scalar multiplets. Latters, in some cases, are…
