I investigate the role of nonrenormalizable terms, up to order N=8, in a superstring derived standard--like model. I argue that nonrenormalizable terms restrict the gauge symmetry, at the Planck scale, to be $SU(3)\times SU(2)\times…

We construct gauge theory of SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) by spectral cover from F-theory and ask how the Standard Model is extended under minimal assumptions on Higgs sector. For the requirement on different numbers between Higgs pairs and matter…

We construct realistic supergravity models where supersymmetry breaking arises from the D-terms of an anomalous U(1) gauge symmetry broken at the Planck scale. Effective action for these theories at sub-Planck energies (including higher…

We construct a realistic SU(7) model which provides answers to many questions presently facing the prototype SU(5) SUSY GUT. Among them are a solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem, string scale unification, proton decay, the…

Based on the Z_{12-I} orbifold compactification of the heterotic string theory, we construct a flipped-SU(5) model with three families of the standard model matter and ingredients for dynamical supersymmetry breaking. The doublet-triplet…

Within the framework of an SU(5) SUSY GUT model, a mechanism which effectively induces R-parity-violating terms below the unification energy scale M_X is proposed. The model has matter fields \bar{5}_{L(+)}+10_{L(-)} and Higgs fields…

We construct the SU(5) and SO(10) models from F-theory. Turning on the U(1) fluxes, we can break the SU(5) gauge symmetry down to the Standard Model (SM) gauge symmetry, and break the SO(10) gauge symmetry down to the SU(3)_C X SU(2)_L X…

We investigate the flavour alignment conditions that New Physics (NP) models need to satisfy in order to address the $(g-2)_\mu$ anomaly and, at the same time, be consistent with the tight bounds from $\mu \to e \gamma$ and $\tau \to \mu…

We study proton decay in finite supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified theories. We find that the dimension-five operators due to color triplet higgsino induce too rapid a proton decay. This behaviour can be traced to the large Yukawa couplings…

We construct an N=1 supersymmetric three-family flipped SU(5) model from type IIA orientifolds on $T^6/(\Z_2\times \Z_2)$ with D6-branes intersecting at general angles. The spectrum contains a complete grand unified and electroweak Higgs…

I review the theoretical and experimental status of proton decay theory and experiment. Regarding theory, I focus mostly, but not only, on grand unification. I discuss only the minimal, well established SU(5) and SO(10) models, both…

We study the breaking of supersymmetry and its transmission to the light states in the context of the minimal SU(5) grand unified theory, with no additional singlets. This simple theory can be taken as a prototype for a program of breaking…

Effective dimension-5 operators which modify the gauge kinetic term in Grand Unified Theories may arise as a consequence of quantum gravity or string compactification. We exhaustively calculate the modification of the gauge unification…

We propose to partially unify the sequential $SU(3)_c\times SU(3)_L\times U(1)_X$ model (with $\beta=1/\sqrt{3}$) into the flipped $SU(6)$ model with the gauge group $SU(6)\times U(1)_K$. Gauge anomaly cancellation can easily be satisfied.…

We demonstrate a model which captures certain attractive features of $SU(5)$ theory, while providing a possible escape from proton decay. In this paper we show how ladder operators arise from the division algebras $\mathbb{R}$,…

We consider realizations of GUT models in F-theory. Adopting a bottom up approach, the assumption that the dynamics of the GUT model can in principle decouple from Planck scale physics leads to a surprisingly predictive framework. An…

Recently in connection with Superstring theory E_8 and E_6 unifications became very promising. In the present paper we have investigated a number of available paths from the Standard Model (SM) to the E_6 unification, considering a chain of…

We discuss R-parity violation (RPV) in semi-local and local F-theory constructions. We first present a detailed analysis of all possible combinations of RPV operators arising from semi-local F-theory spectral cover constructions, assuming…

We begin with an $E_{8}\times E_{8}$ Heterotic model broken to an $SU(5)_{gauge} \times U(1)_{X}$ and a twin $SU(5)_{gauge} \times U(1)_{X}$, where one $SU(5)$ and its spectrum is identified as the visible sector while the other can be…

It might be expected that only global symmetries are fundamental symmetries of Nature, whereas local symmetries and associated massless gauge fields could solely emerge due to spontaneous breaking of underlying spacetime symmetries…
