A new algorithm for fixing the gauge to (direct) maximal center gauge in SU(N) lattice gauge theory is presented. We check how this method works on SU(3) configurations which are vortex-like, and show how these configurations look like when…

We assess proton decay signatures in the simplest viable $SU(5)$ model with regard to constraints on parameters governing the Standard Model fermion mass spectrum. Experimental signals for all eight two-body proton decay processes result…

Explicit supersymmetry breaking is studied in higher dimensional theories by having boundaries respect only a subgroup of the bulk symmetry. If the boundary symmetry is the maximal subgroup allowed by the boundary conditions imposed on the…

Supergravity theories in more than four dimensions with grand unified gauge symmetries are an important intermediate step towards the ultraviolet completion of the Standard Model in string theory. Using toric geometry, we classify and…

We study N=1 supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theory in four dimensions with a large number of massless quarks. We argue that effective superpotentials as a function of local gauge-invariant chiral fields should exist for these theories. We show…

Given a von Neumann algebra $M$ with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\tau,$ we consider the non commutative Arens algebra $L^{\omega}(M, \tau)=\bigcap\limits_{p\geq1}L^{p}(M, \tau)$ and the related algebras $L^{\omega}_2(M,…

We review the main constraints on the parameter space of the minimal renormalizable supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified theory. They consist of the Higgs mass, proton decay, electroweak symmetry breaking and fermion masses. Superpartner…

After a brief review of the motivations for grand unification, I discuss the main challenges facing realistic SUSY GUT model building. Achieving doublet-triplet splitting without fine--tuning is chief among them. Symmetry breaking should…

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…

The definition and computation of the topological susceptibility in non-abelian gauge theories is complicated by the presence of non-integrable short-distance singularities. Recently, alternative representations of the susceptibility were…

In models inspired by non-commutative geometry, patterns of gauge symmetry breaking are analyzed, and SU(5) models are found to naturally favor a vacuum preserving SU(3) X SU(2) X U(1). A more realistic model is presented, and the…

The general seven-dimensional maximal supergravity is presented. Its universal Lagrangian is described in terms of an embedding tensor which can be characterized group-theoretically. The theory generically combines vector, two-form and…

Here, in every simple finite-dimensional vectorial Lie superalgebra considered with the standard grading where every indeterminate is of degree 1, the maximal graded solvable subalgebras are classified over $\mathbb{C}$.

We categorize all non-abelian nilpotent Lie superalgebras of dimension $(m|n)$, where $1\leq s(L)\leq 10$, and $s(L)$ is a non-negative integer defined by Nayak. Furthermore, we classify the structure of all Lie superalgebras of dimension…

We present an algorithm for simulation of $SU(2)$ lattice gauge theory under the MA gauge and first numerical results for the theory without abelian monopoles. The results support the idea that nonperturbative interaction arises between…

These lectures begin with a brief introduction to the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) and the various mechanisms for hidden sector supersymmetry breaking and go on to provide a pedagogical discussion of the various kinds of…

We show that the half-maximal SU(2) gauged supergravity with topological mass term admits coupling of an arbitrary number of n vector multiplets. The chiral circle reduction of the ungauged theory in the dual 2-form formulation gives…

We consider electric flux tube solutions in SU(3) gauge theory with scalar fields in the fundamental representation. Such solutions can possibly be constructed in two classes, corresponding to the two maximally commuting generators…

I consider the superfield derivation of the effective theory of softly broken supersymmetry below the GUT scale. I point out the role of supergauge invariance in determining the form of the result, which is rather restricted in interesting…

We consider N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories based on the group SU(N)_1 x SU(N)_2 x ... x SU(N)_k with matter content (N,N*,1,...,1) + (1,N,N*,..., 1) + >... + (N*,1,1,...,N) as candidates for the unification symmetry of all particles. In…
