Minimal supersymmetric SU(5) with exact unification is naively inconsistent with proton decay constraints. However, it can be made viable by a gravity-induced non-renormalizable operator connecting the adjoint Higgs boson and adjoint vector…
We consider a SU(5) x U(1)_F GUT-flavor model in which the number of effects that determine the charged fermions Yukawa matrices is much larger than the number of observables, resulting in a hierarchical fermion spectrum with no particular…
Theories with gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking provide an interesting alternative to the scenario in which the soft terms of the low-energy fields are induced by gravity. These theories allow for a natural suppression of flavour…
We present an example of SUSY SU(6) GUT, which predicts an excellent value for $\al_s(M_Z)(\simeq 0.119)$, in comparison with the value $\al_s^0(M_Z)\simeq 0.126$ of minimal SUSY SU(5). A crucial role is played by the vectorlike multiplets…
We present a new predictive approach based on SUSY $SO(10)$ theory. The inter-family hierarchy is first generated in the sector of hypothetical superheavy fermions and then transfered inversely to ordinary quarks and leptons by means of the…
We revisit the Missing Doublet Model (MDM) as a means to address the apparent difficulties of the minimal $SU(5)$ supergravity model in dealing with the doublet-triplet splitting problem, the prediction of $\alpha_3(M_Z)$, and the proton…
In this talk~\footnote{Talk presented at the IFT Workshop on Yukawa Couplings, Gainesville, FL, February 1994.} I summarize published work on a systematic operator analysis for fermion masses in a class of effective supersymmetric SO(10)…
We review efforts in string model building, focusing on the heterotic orbifold compactifications. We survey how one can, starting from an explicit string theory, obtain models which resemble Nature. These models exhibit the standard model…
We study (non-renormalizable) five dimensional supersymmetric field theories. The theories are parametrized by quark masses and a gauge coupling. We derive the metric on the Coulomb branch exactly. We use stringy considerations to learn…
Within supersymmetric SU(5) GUT we suggest mechanisms for suppression of baryon number violating dimension five and six operators. The mechanism is based on the idea of split multiplets (i.e. quarks and leptons are not coming from a single…
In this paper, following a stream of investigation on supersymmetric gauge theories with cosmic string solutions, we contemplate the possibility of building up a D-and-F term cosmic string by means of a gauge-field mixing in connection with…
It is shown that embedding a four-dimensional flipped SU(5) model in a five-dimensional SO(10) model, preserves the best features of both flipped SU(5) and SO(10). The missing partner mechanism, which naturally achieves both doublet-triplet…
We calculate quark and lepton masses and quark mixing angles in the framework of a supersymmetric SU(4)$\otimes$SU(2)$_L\otimes$SU(2)$_R$ model where the gauge group is broken at 10$^{16}$ GeV. The model predicts third family top-bottom-tau…
A novel model embedding the two Higgs doublets in the popular two Higgs doublet models into a doublet of a non-abelian gauge group $SU(2)_H$ is presented. The Standard Model $SU(2)_L$ right-handed fermion singlets are paired up with new…
We investigate the low energy properties of an effective local model with flipped $SU(5)\times U(1)_{\chi}$ gauge group, constructed within the framework of F-theory. Its origin is traced back to the $SO(10)$ symmetry -- associated with a…
We propose a model based on the $SU(5)$ grand unification with an extra $Z_{2}\otimes Z_{2}^{\prime}\otimes Z_{2}^{\prime \prime}\otimes Z_{4}\otimes Z_{12}$ flavor symmetry, which successfully describes the observed SM fermion mass and…
Because of the problems arising from the fermion unification in the traditional Grand Unified Theory and the mass hierarchy between the 4-dimensional Planck scale and weak scale, we suggest the low energy gauge unification theory with low…
Prompted by the recent better determination of the angles of the unitarity triangle, we re-appraise the problem of finding simple fermion mass textures, possibly linked to some symmetry principle and compatible with grand unification. In…
Non-supersymmetric grand unified theories based on SU(5) have had a revival during the past years. This is mainly due to their ability to connect neutrino masses with unification and proton decay. In that way they provide a framework for…
Quantum gravity or string compactification can lead to effective dimension-5 operators in Grand Unified Theories which modify the gauge kinetic terms. We exhaustively discuss the group-theoretic nature of such operators for the popular…
