A Supersymmetric Grand Unified Model with Noncompact Horizontal Symmetry
arXiv:1304.5215 · doi:10.1093/ptep/ptt100
Abstract
In a supersymmetric SU(5) grand unified model with a horizontal symmetry SU(1,1), we discuss spontaneous generation of generations to produce three chiral generations of quarks and leptons and one generation of higgses by using one structure field with a half-integer spin of SU(1,1) and two structure fields with integer spins. In particular, the colored higgses can disappear without fine-tuning. The difference of the Yukawa coupling matrices between the down-type quarks and charged leptons is discussed. We show that some special SU(1,1) weight assignments include R-parity as a discrete subgroup, and R-parity remains even after we take into account the SU(1,1) breaking effects from all the VEVs of the structure and matter fields. The assignments forbid the baryon and/or lepton number violating terms except a superpotential quartic term including a coupling of two lepton doublets and two up-type higgses. We discuss how to generate sizable neutrino masses. We show that the proton decay derived from the colored higgses is highly suppressed.
