An exact mathematical solution of the minimization conditions of the scalar Higgs potential of the finite supersymmetric grand unified theory is proposed and extremal field configurations are found. Types of extrema are investigated and masses of the new Higgs particles arising after electroweak symmetry breaking are derived analytically. The conditions for the existence of a physically acceptable minimum are given. As it appears, this minimum is a simple generalization of the analogous solution in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Phenomenological consequences are discussed briefly.

We suggest a new mechanism for electroweak symmetry breaking in the supersymmetric Standard Model. Our suggestion is based on the presence of an anomalous U (1)A gauge symmetry, which naturally arises in the four-dimensional superstring theory, and heavily relies on the value of the corresponding Fayet–Illiopoulos ξ-term.

We study μ and B-parameters in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) based on the radiative electroweak symmetry breaking scenario using "bottom-up" approach and show how useful our approach is to select a phenomenologically viable model beyond the MSSM under the assumption that the underlying theory is a string model or a gauge-Yukawa unified gauge model.

Abstract We compute the decay spectrum for dark matter (DM) with masses above the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking, all the way to the Planck scale. For an arbitrary hard process involving a decay to the unbroken standard model, we determine the prompt distribution of stable states including photons, neutrinos, positrons, and antiprotons. These spectra are a crucial ingredient in the search for DM via indirect detection at the highest energies as being probed in current and upcoming experiments including IceCube, HAWC, CTA, and LHAASO. Our approach improves considerably on existing methods, for instance, we include all relevant electroweak interactions.

In this talk I discuss the problem of accounting for light neutrino masses in theories with dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking. I will first describe this problem generally in a class of extended technicolor (ETC) models, describing the full set of Dirac and Majorana masses that arise in such theories. I will then present an explicit model exhibiting a combination of suppressed Dirac masses and a seesaw involving dynamically generated condensates of standard-model singlet, ETC-nonsinglet fermions. Because of the suppression of the Dirac neutrino mass terms, a seesaw yielding realistic neutrino masses does not require superheavy Majorana masses; indeed, the Majorana masses are typically much smaller than the largest ETC scale.

A supersymmetric model with two copies of the Standard Model gauge groups is constructed in the gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking scenario. The supersymmetry breaking messengers are in a simple form. The Standard Model is obtained after first step gauge symmetry breaking. In the case of one copy of the gauge interactions being strong, a scenario of electroweak symmetry breaking is discussed, and the gauginos are generally predicted to be heavier than the sfermions.
