Avoiding the gauge heirarchy problem with see-sawed neutrino masses

Abstract

We show that the see-saw neutrino mass mechanism can coexist naturally with an extended gauge symmetry (i.e. without any gauge heirarchy problem) provided that the gauge symmetry contains gauged lepton number differences. The simplest such `natural' see-saw models are constructed and their implications for neutrino anomalies discussed.
