Will discrete symmetries help solve the hierarchy problem ?

چکیده
We find that massless Higgs doublets at the GUT scale can be the natural result of a discrete symmetry. Such a mechanism does not require elaborate fine tuning or complicated particle content. The same discrete symmetry will also protect against proton decay and flavor changing neutral currents. However, this mechanism always predicts non-minimal standard models. An explicit example of how this mechanism works is also included.

Generalized KP hierarchy: Möbius Symmetry, Symmetry Constraints and Calogero-Moser System
Analytic-bilinear approach is used to study continuous and discrete non-isospectral symmetries of the generalized KP hierarchy. It is shown that Möbius symmetry transformation for the singular manifold equation leads to continuous or discrete non-isospectral symmetry of the basic (scalar or multicomponent KP) hierarchy connected with binary Bäcklund transformation. A more general class of multi...
متن کاملThe Breaking of the SU(3) Gauge Group
We discuss why the SU(3) supersymmetric model with the most general superpotential can naturally break to the standard model if gauge singlets and a discrete symmetry are included. This mechanism does away with the need for fine-tuning in the form of the assumed absence of certain terms in the superpotential. It also automatically guarantees that any abelian discrete phase symmetry of the GUT w...
متن کاملThe discrete symmetries of the N = 2 supersymmetric GNLS hierarchies
The discrete symmetry transformations of the N = 2 supersymmetric (n,m)-GNLS hierarchy are constructed. Their bosonic limit is analyzed and new discrete symmetries of the modified GNLS hierarchy are derived. The explicit relations connecting the integrable hierarchy, produced by the junction of the Lax operators for the N = 2 supersymmetric a = 4 KdV and (n − 1, m)-GNLS hierarchies, to the N = ...

This paper presents a new approach to solve generation expansion planning (GEP) problem by improved Genetic Algorithm (IGA). GEP is a large-scale stochastic highly constraint nonlinear discrete dynamic optimization problem. Generation system planers tend to use many different methods to address the expansion problem and to determine optimum plans by minimizing the mathematical objective functio...
متن کاملDiscrete R Symmetries and Low Energy Supersymmetry
If nature exhibits low energy supersymmetry, discrete (non-Z2) R symmetries may well play an important role. In this paper, we explore such symmetries. We generalize gaugino condensation, constructing large classes of models which are classically scale invariant, and which spontaneously break discrete R symmetries (but not supersymmetry). The order parameters for the breaking include chiral sin...
