We explore a mechanism of radiative B-L symmetry breaking in analogous to the radiative electroweak symmetry breaking. The breaking scale of B-L symmetry is related to the neutrino masses through the see-saw mechanism. Once we incorporate…
In realistic grand unified models there are typically extra vectorlike matter multiplets at the GUT scale that are needed to explain the family hierarchy. These contain neutrinos that, when integrated out, can modify the usual neutrino…
We consider the neutrino mixing angles in an SO(10) GUT with the usual Higgs structure in which neutrino masses are explained by the type-I see-saw mechanism. The Dirac-neutrino Yukawa matrix then has a structure similar to that of the…

A four-neutrino spectrum with a sterile neutrino without significant involvement in the atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillation experiments has been recently advocated as the correct picture to explain all existing experimental data. We…
We summarized our report on neutrino masses and $\mu \to e \gamma$ in the generic supersymmetric standard model, emphasizing on the much overlooked scalar masses contributions from R-parity violation.
Supersymmetric left-right models with the see-saw mechanism for the neutrino masses have the attractive property that they conserve baryon and lepton number exactly in the Lagrangian. In this talk, I review the recent results valid for a…
We discuss an extended $SU(2)\times U(1)$ model which naturally leads to mass scales and mixing angles relevant for understanding both the solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies. No right-handed neutrinos are introduced in the model.The…
The mass estimates of active and sterile (right-handed) neutrinos are considered at the phenomenological level using the seesaw mechanism. It is assumed that the neutrino mass values depend on three characteristic scales, and the sum of the…
We consider the supersymmetric seesaw mechanism induced by the exchange of heavy SU(2)_W triplet states, rather than `right-handed' neutrino singlets, to generate neutrino masses. We show that in this scenario the neutrino flavour structure…
I present two new renormalizable grand unified theories where the neutrino masses are generated through the type I and type III seesaw mechanisms. These theories can be considered as the simplest (SUSY) renormalizable grand unified theories…
Left right symmetric models (LRSM) are extensions of the standard model by an enlarged gauge group $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{B-L}$ where automatic inclusion of right handed fermions as $SU(2)_R$ doublets guarantees a natural…
We consider the possibility to detect right-handed neutrinos, which are mostly singlets of the Standard Model gauge group, at future accelerators. Substantial mixing of these neutrinos with the active neutrinos requires a cancellation of…
We study the origin of neutrino mass from $SO(10)$ arising from $M$ Theory compactified on a $G_2$-manifold. This is linked to the problem of the breaking of the extra $U(1)$ gauge group, in the $SU(5)\times U(1)$ subgroup of $SO(10)$,…
The minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) of particle interactions is extended to include three singlet (right-handed) neutrino superfields together with three other singlet superfields. The resulting theory is assumed to be…
The Standard Model augmented by the presence of gauge-singlet right-handed neutrinos proves to be an ideal scenario for accommodating nonzero neutrino masses. Among the new parameters of this ``New Standard Model'' are right-handed neutrino…
We argue that the discovery of neutrino mass effects at Super-Kamiokande implies a clear logical chain leading from the Standard Model, through the MSSM and the recently developed Minimal Left Right Supersymmetric models with a…
Recently it was proposed that the standard model (SM) degrees of freedom reside on a $(3+1)$-dimensional wall or ``3-brane'' embedded in a higher-dimensional spacetime. Furthermore, in this picture it is possible for the fundamental Planck…
Low energy effects induced by heavy extra degrees of freedom are suppressed by powers of the large mass scale, thus preserving, if sufficiently heavy, the successes of the Standard Model in describing low energy phenomena. However, as is…
We propose a left-right symmetric electroweak extension of the Standard Model based on the $\Delta \left( 27\right)$ family symmetry. The masses of all electrically charged Standard Model fermions lighter than the top quark are induced by a…
