The seemingly disparate notions of chiral color and quark-lepton nonuniversality are combined, and shown to be essential to each other as part of an underlying (and unifying) larger symmetry, i.e. supersymmetric SU(3)^6. Both phenomena are…
We consider a family of SU(2)-symmetric Projected Entangled Paired States (PEPS) on the square lattice, defining colored-Resonating Valence Bond (RVB) states, to describe the quantum disordered phase of the $J_1-J_2$ frustrated Heisenberg…
A simple alternative to the usual Pati-Salam model is proposed. The model allows quarks and leptons to be unified with gauge group $SU(4) \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes SU(2)_R$ at a remarkably low scale of about 1 TeV. Neutrino masses in the…
The recent observation of a hadronic resonance $d^*$ in the proton-neutron system with isospin $I = 0$ and spin-parity $J^P = 3^+$ raises the possibility of producing other novel six-quark dibaryon configurations allowed by QCD. A dramatic…
Three searches are presented for signatures of physics beyond the standard model (SM) in $\tau\tau$ final states in proton-proton collisions at the LHC, using a data sample collected with the CMS detector at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV,…
In the framework of the unified compositeness of leptons, quarks and Higgs bosons, the hidden local symmetry \hat H_{loc}= SU(2)_L\times U(1)_Y with the heavy composite vector bosons, in addition to the SM gauge bosons, is briefly…
In scenarios that stabilize the electroweak scale, the top quark is typically accompanied by partner particles. In this work, we demonstrate how extended stabilizing symmetries can yield scalar or fermionic top partners that transform as…
In spite of its many successes, the Standard Model makes many empirical assumptions in the Higgs and fermion sectors for which a deeper theoretical basis is sought. Starting from the usual gauge symmetry $u(1) \times su(2) \times su(3)$…
We propose a symmetry breaking scheme for QCD with three massless quarks at high baryon density wherein the color and flavor SU(3)_color times SU(3)_L times SU(3)_R symmetries are broken down to the diagonal subgroup SU(3)_{color+L+R} by…
The color excitations of interacting fermions carrying an $SU(3)$ color and $U(N_f)$ flavor index in one spatial dimension are studied in the framework of a perturbed $SU(3)_{N_f}$ Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten model. Using Bethe ansatz…
We study the discovery prospects of the leptophilic photon Z\_l, a hypothetical gauge boson beyond the Standard Model, at future electron-positron colliders. Our analysis is based on the process e+e- -> mu+mu- and consistently includes…
There has been much theoretical speculation about the existence of a deeply bounded tetra-bottom state. Such a state would not be expected to be more than a GeV below $\Upsilon\Upsilon$ threshold. If such a state exists below the…
We study the properties and production mechanisms of color-octet scalars at the LHC. We focus on the single production of both charged and neutral members of an (8,2)_1/2 doublet through bottom quark initial states. These channels provide a…
The latest results from the search for a Standard Model Higgs boson produced in association with a top quark pair ($\mathrm{t\bar{t}H}$) at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV decaying to final states with multiple leptons is presented using the 2016…
The conventional signature for grand unified theories (GUT) is the proton decay. Recently, some models in extra dimensions or with specific discrete symmetries, which aim at solving the doublet-triplet problem, allow the color-triplet in…
A new supersymmetric gauge model is proposed with particle content chosen only from the 27 and 27* representations of E_6. The gauge symmetry SU(3) X SU(2)_L X SU(2)_R X U(1) is realized at the TeV energy scale and the gauge couplings…
Results from a search for supersymmetry in events with four or more leptons including electrons, muons and taus are presented. The analysis uses a data sample corresponding to 20.3 $fb^{-1}$ of proton--proton collisions delivered by the…
We explore the discovery potential of W' and Z' boson searches for various SU(2) x SU(2) x U(1) models at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), after taking into account the constraints from low energy precision measurements and direct searches…
The Third Family Hypercharge Model predicts a $Z^\prime$ gauge boson with flavour dependent couplings which has been used to explain anomalies in meson decay processes which involve the $b\rightarrow s\mu^+\mu^-$ transition. The model…
A heavy triplet of leptons $(\Sigma^+, \Sigma^0, \Sigma^-)_R$ per family is proposed as the possible anchor of a small seesaw neutrino mass. A new U(1) gauge symmetry is then also possible, and the associated gauge boson $X$ may be…
