Gauge Unification in Higher Dimensions
A complete 5-dimensional SU(5) unified theory is constructed which, on compactification on the orbifold S/(Z2 ×Z ′ 2), yields the minimal supersymmetric standard model. The orbifold accomplishes SU(5) gauge symmetry breaking, doublet-triplet splitting, and a vanishing of proton decay from operators of dimension 5. Until 4d supersymmetry is broken, all proton decay from dimension 4 and dimension...
متن کاملGauge-Higgs Unification in Higher Dimensions
The electroweak Higgs doublets are identified as components of a vector multiplet in a higher dimensional supersymmetric field theory. We construct a minimal model in 6D where the electroweak SU(2) ⊗ U(1) gauge group is extended to SU(3), and unified 6D models with the unified SU(5) gauge symmetry extended to SU(6). In these realistic theories the extended gauge group is broken by orbifold boun...
متن کاملHigher Gauge Theory
Just as gauge theory describes the parallel transport of point particles using connections on bundles, higher gauge theory describes the parallel transport of 1-dimensional objects (e.g. strings) using 2-connections on 2-bundles. A 2-bundle is a categorified version of a bundle: that is, one where the fiber is not a manifold but a category with a suitable smooth structure. Where gauge theory us...
متن کاملChiral Gauge Theory in Four Dimensions
A formulation of abelian and non-abelian chiral gauge theories is presented together with arguments for the unitarity and renormalisability in four dimensions.
متن کاملQuiver Gauge Theory of Nonabelian Vortices and Noncommutative Instantons in Higher Dimensions
We construct explicit BPS and non-BPS solutions of the Yang-Mills equations on the noncommutative space R θ ×S2 which have manifest spherical symmetry. Using SU(2)-equivariant dimensional reduction techniques, we show that the solutions imply an equivalence between instantons on R θ ×S2 and nonabelian vortices on R θ , which can be interpreted as a blowing-up of a chain of D0-branes on R θ into...
