We reconsider the Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) as a natural solution to the $\mu$-problem and show that both the stability and the cosmological domain wall problems are eliminated if we impose a ${\cal {Z}}_2$…
We study the cosmology of the Supersymmetric Standard Model augmented by a gauge singlet to solve the $\mu$-problem and describe the evolution of the domain walls which are created during electroweak symmetry breaking due to the discrete…
In this note we show that the cosmological domain wall and the de Sitter quantum breaking problems complement each other in theories with discrete symmetries that are spontaneously broken at low energies. Either the symmetry is exact and…
Discrete R symmetries are interesting from a variety of points of view. They raise the specter, however, of domain walls, which may be cosmologically problematic. In this note, we describe some of the issues. In many schemes for…
Many models for dynamical supersymmetry breaking have the domain wall solution of the Kovner-Shifman type and therefore contain the potential cosmological domain wall problem.We show that the degeneracy of the vacua is lifted in any model…
The Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), proposed as a solution of the mu problem of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, has a discrete Z_{3} symmetry which is spontaneously broken at the electroweak phase…
The problem of destabilising divergences is discussed for singlet extensions of the MSSM. It is shown that models which possess either gauged-$R$ symmetry or target space duality at the Planck scale are able to circumvent this problem…
We review the theoretical and phenomenological aspects of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model: the Higgs sector including radiative corrections and the 2-loop beta-functions for all parameters of the general NMSSM; the tadpole…
We discuss a possibility that the domain wall problem in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model is alleviated without introducing a small explicit $Z_3$ breaking term by analyzing the evolution of the singlet scalar field within…
It is well known that the spontaneous breaking of discrete symmetries may lead to conflict with big-bang cosmology. This is due to formation of domain walls which give unacceptable contribution to the energy density of the universe. On the…
Discrete symmetries are commonplace in field theoretical models but pose a severe problem for cosmology since they lead to the formation of domain walls during spontaneous symmetry breaking in the early universe. However if one of the…
It is argued that the Next-to-MSSM (NMSSM) is unnatural from the point of view of cosmology and fine tuning. In particular, such singlet extensions to the MSSM do not provide a simple solution to the `$\mu$-problem'. Models with singlets…
The status of internal symmetry breaking at high temperature in supersymmetric models is reviewed. This phenomenon could solve some well known cosmological problems, such as the domain wall, monopole and false vacuum problems.
Domain wall solution for $N_{c}=N_{f}$ supersymmetric QCD is constructed. Astrophysical implications of the domain wall configuration is also discussed.
We study the evolution of cosmological domain walls in models with asymmetric potentials. Our research goes beyond the standard case of spontaneous breaking of an approximate symmetry. When the symmetry is explicitly broken the potential…
The correspondence between domain-wall and cosmological solutions of gravity coupled to scalar fields is explained. Any domain wall solution that admits a Killing spinor is shown to correspond to a cosmology that admits a pseudo-Killing…
We consider salient cosmological features of a supersymmetric model which is Left-Right symmetric and therefore possessing gauged $B-L$ symmetry. The requirement of breaking parity and also obtaining charge preserving vacua introduces some…
Formation of transitory domain walls is quite generic in theories with spontaneous breaking of discrete symmetries. Since these walls are in conflict with cosmology, there has to be some mechanism which makes them disappear. We study one…
It is shown that the minimal left-right symmetric model admits cosmic string and domain wall solutions. The cosmic strings arise when the SU(2)_R is broken and can either be destabilized at the electroweak scale or remain stable through the…
The renormalization of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is discussed. In particular we focus on the soft-supersymmetry breaking sector of the MSSM and comment on non-renormalization theorems.
