We present a supersymmetric extension of the standard model where all quark masses and mixing angles except mt are derived as radiative effects induced by the gluino mass. We demonstrate in detail that our model fits well with present data on Vcb and Vub, etc.

If the standard model of quark interactions is supplemented by a discrete A4 symmetry (which may be relevant for the lepton sector), the spontaneous breaking of the electroweak gauge symmetry allows arbitrary quark masses, but all mixing angles are predicted to be zero. A pattern of the explicit breaking of A4 is proposed, which results in a realistic charged-current mixing matrix.

We study an ansatz for the quark mass matrix in which all of the nondiagonal entries are nonzero, but which still allows the quark mixing angles to be calculated in terms of ratios of quark masses and certain phases. Analytic calculations of the orthogonal rotation matrices in the up and down quark sectors and the resultant observed quark mixing matrix are presented. Comparison with experimental data is given.

A nearly historical account of quark mass matrix models is given, and the structure of quark mass matrices in the standard model is studied. For a minimal parameter basis suggested earlier, where Mu is diagonal and Md11, Md13, Md31 are zero, the dependence of mass matrices on the CP violating phase δ of V CKM is reported: all parameters are almost independent, except Md22 and Md23, and the equality |Md22| = Md23 is obtained for a value of δ very close to the value which is favored by experiments. Moreover, on this basis, Md12≃Md21 and Md33≃2Md32. Some comments on mass matrices in left–right symmetric models are added.

We examine the Higgs sector of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. The requirement of perturbative unification combined with the recent LEP data on Higgs boson searches, excludes substantial regions of parameter space. We find that only 0.42 ≤ tan β≲0.76 and tan β≳1.30 are the allowed values for tan β=υ2/υ1. We also determine the absolute lower bound on the lightest Higgs mass to be ≈8 GeV. We conclude that improved lower bounds on the top quark mass and/or the standard model Higgs boson mass will impose yet more stringent constraints on the model. These results clearly favor tan β>1, in agreement with N=1 supergravity or superstring-inspired models.

The recent evidence for neutrino oscillations stimulate us to discuss again the problem of fermion masses and mixings in gauge theories. In the standard model, several forms for quark mass matrices are equivalent. They become ansatze within most extensions of the standard model, where also relations between quark and lepton sectors may hold. In a seesaw framework, these relations can constrain the scale of heavy neutrino mass, which is often related to the scale of intermediate or unification gauge symmetry. As a consequence, two main scenarios arise. Hierarchies of masses and mixings may be explained by broken horizontal symmetries.
