Fermion Mass Hierarchy and Supersymmetry Breaking in 6D SO(10) GUT on Orbifold
نویسندگان
چکیده
We suggest simple models which produce the suitable fermion mass hierarchies and flavor mixing angles based on the N = 1 supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theory compactified on a T /(Z2 × Z ′ 2) orbifold. We introduce extra vector-like heavy fields in the extra dimensions, and the suitable fermion mass hierarchies and flavor mixings are generated by integrating out these heavy fields. We consider supersymmetry breaking mechanisms and their flavor structures.

Softness of Supersymmetry Breaking on the Orbifold T 2 /
We consider supersymmetry breaking due to a Scherk-Schwarz twist or localized mass terms in 6d N = 1 supersymmetric gauge theory compactified on the orbifold T /Z2. We show that the Scherk-Schwarz breaking in 6d is equivalent to the localized breaking with mass terms along the lines in extra dimensions. In the presence of the considered supersymmetry breaking, we find that there arises a finite...
متن کاملThe Flavour Puzzle from an Orbifold GUT Perspective
Neutrino masses and mixings are very different from quark masses and mixings. This puzzle is a crucial hint in the search for the mechanism which determines fermion masses in grand unified theories. We study the flavour problem in an SO(10) GUT model in six dimensions compactified on an orbifold. Three sequential families are localized at three branes where SO(10) is broken to its three GUT sub...
متن کاملGrand Unification in Higher Dimensions with Split Supersymmetry
We investigate gauge coupling unification in higher dimensional GUT models with split supersymmetry. We focus on 5d and 6d orbifold GUTs, which permit a simple solution to several problems of 4D GUTs as well as control over GUT scale threshold corrections. In orbifold GUTs, calculable threshold corrections can raise or lower the prediction for αs(MZ) in a way that depends on the location of Hig...

متن کاملDynamical symmetry breaking on a brane with bulk gauge theory
We analyze a structure of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in orbifold gauge theories with matter fields (fermions) on the fixed point. We find that the boundary chiral phase structure of QED and QCD on the orbifold is quite nontrivial depending on the bulk constitution, and we claim that particular attention should be given to the dynamically generated masses in various kinds of phenomenolog...
