The Doublet-Triplet Splitting Problem and Higgses as Pseudogoldstone Bosons

Abstract

The doublet-triplet splitting problem is probably the most significant challenge to supersymmetric GUT theories. In this talk, we review potential solutions and their problematic aspects. We also present a complete consistent realization of our preferred solution, higgses as pseudogoldstone bosons, and discuss some distinctive aspects of its phenomenology.
