Higher-dimensional models of grand unification allow us to relate the top Yukawa coupling y_t to the gauge coupling g. The tree level relation y_t=g at the scale of grand unification implies, in the framework of the MSSM, a rather small…

The hierarchy in the Yukawa couplings may be the result of a gauged horizontal $U(1)_H$ symmetry. If the mixed anomalies of the Standard Model gauge group with $U(1)_H$ are cancelled by a Green-Schwarz mechanism, a relation between the…

We analyze the gauge unification in minimal supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theories in 5 dimensions. The single extra spatial dimension is compactified on the orbifold S^1/(Z_2 x Z_2') reducing the gauge group to that of Pati-Salam…

We investigate the spectrum of supersymmetric grand unification models based on the gauge groups SU(5), SO(10) and E6, paying particular attention to the first and second generation. We demonstrate how the measurement of the first or second…

We study the Yukawa unification, in particular, the unification of the Yukawa coupling constants of $b$ and $\tau$, in the framework of supersymmetric (SUSY) model. We concentrate on the model in which the SUSY breaking scalar masses are of…

We analyze the implications of the light gluino scenario for the unification of gauge and Yukawa couplings within the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Within this scheme all fermionic supersymmetric particles are naturally light,…

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…

The issue of gauge unification in the (non-supersymmetric) Standard Model is reinvestigated. It is found that with just an additional fourth generation of quarks and leptons, $SU(3) \otimes SU(2) \otimes U(1)$ gauge couplings converge to a…

The SU(3)--invariant sector of maximal supergravity in four dimensions with an SO(8) gauging is uplifted to $D=11$ supergravity. In order to do this, the SU(3)--neutral sector of the tensor and duality hierarchies of the $D=4$ ${\cal N}=8$…

We examine a superpotential for an SO(10) GUT and show that if the parameters of the superpotential are in a certain region, the SO(10) GUT has an intermediate symmetry ${\rm SU(2)}_L \otimes {\rm SU(2)}_R \otimes {\rm SU(3)}_C \otimes {\rm…

We study a supersymmetric extension of the vector-like lepton scenario, such that the vacuum instability induced by large lepton Yukawa couplings is lifted by the presence of superpartners at or below the TeV scale. In order to preserve the…

We study properties of D = 4, N >1 extended supergravities (and related compactifications of superstring theory) and their consistent truncation to the phenomenologically interesting models of N = 1 supergravity. This involves a detailed…

We use the recently developed generalized double-copy procedure to construct an integrand for the five-loop four-point amplitude of N=8 supergravity. This construction starts from a naive double copy of the previously computed corresponding…

A natural model of realizing the effective supersymmetry is presented. Two sets of the Standard Model-like gauge group $G_1\times G_2$ are introduced, where $G_i=SU(3)_i\times SU(2)_i\times U(1)_i$, which break diagonally to the Standard…

We present the complete 2-loop renormalisation group equations of the superpotential parameters for the supersymmetric standard model including the full set of R-parity violating couplings. We use these equations to do a study of (a) gauge…

We discuss some recent developments in SUSY Grand Unified Theories based on the gauge group SO(10). Considering renormalisable Yukawa couplings, we present ways to accommodate quark and lepton masses and and mixings.

Extra dimension provides an attractive way to break symmetry by boundary conditions which can be useful to construct a natural grand unified theory avoiding the doublet-triplet splitting problem and the proton decay problem. It can provide…

We describe recent developments regarding gauged N=8 supergravity in D=4. Using the embedding tensor formulation we show how to classify all the extrema of this theory with a G2 residual gauge symmetry. Our classification contains all the…

I discuss the mere 5 % of atoms in the cosmic energy pie. It is basically the chiral matter problem. Then, I review the chiral matter problem from a grand unification (GUT) point of view, and point out that anti-SU(N), easily implementable…

We construct a three family flipped SU(5) model from the heterotic string theory compactified on the $\Z_{12-I}$ orbifold with one Wilson line. The gauge group is $\rm SU(5)\times U(1)_X\times U(1)^2\times[SU(2)\times SO(10)\times…
