Dynamical Doublet-Triplet Higgs Mass Splitting

We propose a new mechanism towards the solution to the doublet-triplet Higgs mass splitting problem in the supersymmetric grand unified theory. Our model is based on the gauge group $SU(5)_H \times SU(5)_{GUT}$, where $SU(5)_H$ and $SU(5)_{GUT}$ are a new strong gauge interaction and the ordinary grand unified gauge group, respectively. The doublet-triplet Higgs mass splitting is realized through the quantum deformation of moduli space caused by the strong $SU(5)_H$ gauge dynamics. The low energy description of our model is given by the minimal supersymmetric standard model.

P and T Odd Asymmetries in Lepton Flavor Violating Tau Decays

We calculated the differential cross sections of the processes in which one of the pair created tau particles at an e^+ e^- collider decays into lepton flavor violating final states e.g. tau -> mu gamma, tau -> 3 mu, tau -> mu ee. Using the correlations between angular distributions of both sides of tau decays, we can obtain information on parity and CP violations of lepton flavor non-conserving interactions. The formulae derived here are useful in distinguishing different models, since each model of physics beyond the standard model predicts different angular correlations. We also calculate angular distributions of the major background process to tau -> l gamma search, namely tau -> l nu \barν gamma, and discuss usefulness of the angular correlation for background suppression.

Large Angle MSW Solution in Grand Unified Theories with SU(3) X U(1) Horizontal Symmetry

We construct a model with a SU(3) X U(1) horizontal symmetry in the context of Grand Unified Theories. In our models, the bi-maximal lepton mixing and suitable neutrino masses for the large angle MSW solution are obtained without any fine-tuning due to the spontaneously broken SU(3)_H symmetry. The three generations of quarks and leptons are unified as members of the SU(3)_H fundamental representation, and the U(1)_H charge gives the origin of the fermion mass hierarchy and mixing angles. We present two explicit examples of SU(5)_GUT and SO(10)_GUT models, in which the Yukawa structures are given successfully.

Lepton flavor violation in the supersymmetric standard model with vectorlike leptons

Lepton flavor violating processes are obtained from the mixing between ordinary leptons and vectorlike SU(2)_L doublet leptons which may originate in E_6. The effects of this lepton mixing are, however, suppressed naturally by the hierarchy of the charged lepton masses. In the supersymmetric model, significant effects of lepton flavor violation may appear rather through slepton mixing, which is in the present case generated by radiative corrections with ordinary-exotic lepton couplings. We are especially interested in the mu -> e gamma decay. In the model without the bare mass term of vectorlike leptons, the supersymmetric contributions are rather suppressed due to the approximate U(1)_e X U(1)_mu. It is, however, remarkable that they are substantially enhanced by tan^6 beta. Then, B(mu -> e gamma) might be comparable to the experimental bound for large tan beta. In the model with the bare mass term, much larger contributions are obtained through slepton mixing. These investigations show that the supersymmetric effects on lepton flavor violation due to the vectorlike leptons can be observed in the near future experiments.

Lepton flavor violation in the Randall-Sundrum model with bulk neutrinos

Lepton flavor violation in the Randall-Sundrum model with bulk neutrinos is considered. Grossman and Neubert recently proposed that the existence of tiny neutrino masses and large mixing could be explained by the presence of the bulk neutrinos in the Randall-Sundrum background. Since the zero mode wave functions of the bulk neutrinos are localized on Planck brane, the Dirac Yukawa couplings on our brane are exponentially suppressed enough to generate tiny neutrino masses. However, the existence of Kaluza-Klein modes of these bulk neutrinos enhance lepton flavor violating processes such as $μ\to e γ$, from which lower bounds on their masses can be derived. We find that the first KK mode must be heavier than 25 TeV if all the neutrino Yukawa couplings are of order unity, which requires a fine-tuning for the Higgs mass parameter.

Neutrino Masses in the Supersymmetric Standard Model with Right-Handed Neutrinos and Spontaneous R-Parity Violation

We propose an extension of the supersymmetric standard model with right-handed neutrinos and a singlet Higgs field, and study the neutrino masses in this model. The Majorana masses for the right-handed neutrinos are generated around the supersymmetry breaking scale through the vacuum expectation value of the singlet Higgs field. This model may induce spontaneous R-parity violation via the vacuum expectation value of the right-handed sneutrino. In the case, the effective theory is similar to a bilinear R-parity violating model. There are two sources for the neutrino masses: one is this bilinear R-parity breaking effect, and the other is the ordinary seesaw effect between left- and right-handed neutrinos. Combining these two effects, the hierarchical neutrino mass pattern arises even when the neutrino Yukawa matrices are not hierarchical. We acquire appropriate masses and mixings to explain both the solar and atmospheric neutrino oscillations.
