Supersymmetric unification in warped space provides new possibilities for model building. I argue that the picture of warped supersymmetric unification arises naturally through the AdS/CFT correspondence from the assumption that…
We give a short review of a large class of warped string geometries, obtained via F-theory compactified on Calabi-Yau fourfolds, that upon reduction to 5 dimensions give consistent supersymmetric realizations of the RS compactification…
Recently, extra dimensional SUSY GUT models have been proposed in which compactification of the extra dimension(s) leads to a breakdown of the gauge symmetry and/or supersymmetry. We examine a particular class of higher-dimensional models…
We propose a new kind of supersymmetric (SUSY) transformation in the case of the two-channel scattering problem with equal thresholds, for partial waves of the same parity. This two-fold transformation is based on two imaginary…
We propose a solution to the SUSY $\mu$-problem within the framework of modular flavor symmetry. The explicit $\mu$-term is prohibited by modular symmetry, and an effective $\mu$-term is regenerated following the stabilization of the…
We discuss all possible compactifications on flat three-dimensional smooth spaces. In particular, various fields are studied on a box with opposite sides identified, after two of them are rotated by $\pi$, and their spectra are obtained.…
Supersymmetry breaking by constant (field independent) superpotentials localized at boundaries is studied in a supersymmetric warped space model. We calculate the Kaluza-Klein mass spectrum of the hypermultiplet. We take into account of the…

We construct supersymmetric models of SO(10) unification in which the gauge symmetry is broken by orbifold compactification. We find that using boundary conditions to break the gauge symmetry down to $SU(3)_C \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes U(1)_Y…
The hamiltonian formulation of the supersymmetric closed 2-brane dual to the double compactified D=11 closed supermembrane is presented. The formulation is in terms of two U(1) vector fields related by the area preserving constraint of the…
We analyze the gauge unification in minimal supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theories in 5 dimensions. The single extra spatial dimension is compactified on the orbifold S^1/(Z_2 x Z_2') reducing the gauge group to that of Pati-Salam…
We demonstrate the existence of a novel set of discrete symmetries in the context of N = 2 supersymmetric (SUSY) quantum mechanical model with a potential function f(x) that is a generalization of the potential of the 1D SUSY harmonic…
We propose a new radion stabilization mechanism in the Randall-Sundrum spacetime, introducing a bulk ${SU(N_H)}$ gauge field which confines at a TeV scale. It turns out that the radion is stabilized by the balance between a brane tension…
We reinterpret the Scherk-Schwarz (SS) boundary condition for SU(2)_R in a compactified five-dimensional (5D) Poincare supergravity in terms of the twisted SU(2)_U gauge fixing in 5D conformal supergravity. In such translation, only the…
In this note we observe that positive runaway potentials can generically be stabilized by abelian $p$-form fluxes, leading to parametrically controlled de Sitter solutions after compactification to a lower dimension. When compactifying from…
We construct flux-stabilised IIB compactifications whose extra dimensions (EDs) have very different sizes, and use these to describe several vacua with a TeV string scale. Because we can access regimes where 2 dimensions are hierarchically…
We consider a supersymmetric completion of codimension-two branes with nonzero tension in a 6D gauged supergravity. As a consequence, we obtain the football solution with 4D Minkowski space as a new supersymmetric background that preserves…
We consider a five dimensional AdS spacetime in presence of higher curvature term like $F(R) = R + \alpha R^2$ in the bulk. In this model, we examine the possibility of modulus stabilization from the scalar degrees of freedom of higher…
A supersymmetric breaking procedure for N=1 Super KdV, preserving the positivity of the hamiltonian as well as the existence of solitonic solutions, is implemented. The resulting integrable system is shown to have nice stability properties.
We construct the 4D N=1 supergravity which describes the low-energy limit of 6D supergravity compactified on a sphere with a monopole background a la Salam and Sezgin. This provides a simple setting sharing the main properties of realistic…
