SO(10) Unified Theories in Six Dimensions
We construct supersymmetric models of SO(10) unification in which the gauge symmetry is broken by orbifold compactification. We find that using boundary conditions to break the gauge symmetry down to SU(3)C ⊗ SU(2)L ⊗ U(1)Y ⊗ U(1)X without leaving unwanted massless states requires at least two extra dimensions, motivating us to work with 6D orbifolds. SO(10) is broken by two operations, each of...
متن کاملSuperconformal Theories in Six Dimensions
This thesis consists of an introductory text, which is divided into two parts, and six appended research papers. The first part contains a general discussion on conformal and superconformal symmetry in six dimensions, and treats how the corresponding transformations act on space-time and superspace fields. We specialize to the case with chiral (2, 0) supersymmetry. A formalism is presented for ...
متن کاملNew “gauge” Theories in Six Dimensions
More general constructions are given of six-dimensional theories that look at low energy like six-dimensional super Yang-Mills theory. The constructions start with either parallel fivebranes in Type IIB, or M -theory on (C × S)/Γ for Γ a suitable finite group. Via these constructions, one can obtain six-dimensional theories with any simple gauge group, and SU(r) theories with any rational theta...
متن کاملGauge Coupling Unification from Unified Theories in Higher Dimensions
A two-stage framework for unification is proposed involving grand unification, supersymmetry and extra dimensions, leading to a prediction for the strong gauge coupling, αKK s = 0.118±0.004±0.003, which is more successful and precise than that obtained from conventional supersymmetric grand unification, αSGUT s = 0.130 ± 0.004 ± ∆SGUT. Orbifold breaking of the unified gauge group leads to a non...
متن کاملAspects of superconformal field theories in six dimensions
We introduce the analytic superspace formalism for six-dimensional (N, 0) superconformal field theories. Concentrating on the (2, 0) theory we write down the Ward identities for correlation functions in the theory and show how to solve them. We then consider the four-point function of four energy momentum multiplets in detail explicitly solving the Ward identities in this case. We expand the fo...
