Potential terms of the SUSY GUT
#PotentialTermThe inductive type `PotentialTerm` serves as an index for the various interaction terms appearing in the superpotential and the Kähler potential of a supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT). These terms involve matter fields in the (denoted ) and representations, as well as Higgs fields in the and representations (denoted and ). The specific terms indexed by this type include: - Superpotential terms: - : The Higgs mass term . - : The matter-Higgs mixing term . - : The trilinear matter interaction . - : The dimension-5 operator . - : The operator . - : The operator . - : The operator . - Kähler potential terms: - : The term . - : The term .
Equality of potential terms is decidable
#instDecidableEqPotentialTermThe equality of interaction terms in the supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT), represented by the type `PotentialTerm`, is decidable. This implies that for any two potential terms—such as the Higgs mass term , the matter-Higgs mixing terms , or the various superpotential () and Kähler potential () operators—it can be algorithmically determined whether they are identical.
The set of potential terms is finite
#instFintypePotentialTermThe set of potential terms in the supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT), represented by the type `PotentialTerm`, is finite. This type indexes the interaction terms present in the superpotential and the Kähler potential , including the Higgs mass term , the matter-Higgs mixing term , the trilinear interaction , the higher-dimension operators , the Kähler terms , and the Yukawa couplings.
Field content of potential terms
#toFieldLabelThis function maps a potential term in the supersymmetric GUT model to the list of field labels that constitute that term. For each term , it returns the sequence of matter () or Higgs () field representations () involved: - (Higgs mass term) - (Matter-Higgs mixing) - (Trilinear matter interaction) - (Dimension-5 operator) - (Higgs-mediated operator) - - - (Kähler term) - (Kähler term) - (Top quark Yukawa coupling) - (Bottom quark Yukawa coupling)
Predicate for terms belonging to the superpotential
#InSuperPotentialThe predicate determines whether a given potential term of type belongs to the superpotential of the supersymmetric GUT. It is defined to be true for the terms , , , , , , , , and , and false for the Kähler potential terms and .
Decidability of for potential terms
#instDecidableInSuperPotentialThe predicate , which determines whether a given potential term in the supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT) belongs to the superpotential , is decidable. Specifically, for any term , the predicate is true for the superpotential terms and false for the Kähler potential terms .
Terms in the superpotential contain no conjugate fields
#no_conjugate_in_toFieldLabel_of_inSuperPotentialFor any interaction term in the supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT), if is part of the superpotential (i.e., the predicate holds), then the list of its constituent field labels does not contain the matter representation , the Higgs representation , or the conjugate Higgs representation .
Degree of an potential term
#degreeThe degree of a potential term in the SUSY GUT model is defined as the number of fields (represented by their `FieldLabel`s) that constitute the term. Mathematically, for a term , its degree is the length of the list of field labels returned by the mapping . For example, the Higgs mass term has a degree of 2, while the trilinear matter interaction has a degree of 3.
The degree of any potential term is
#degree_le_fourIn the supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT), for any interaction term in the superpotential or Kähler potential (including terms such as , , , , , , , , and ), the degree of the term is at most 4. Here, the degree is defined as the number of constituent field labels in the term.
R-parity of a potential term
#RParityFor a potential term in the SUSY GUT model, the R-parity is defined as the sum of the R-parities of its constituent fields. Specifically, if consists of a list of field labels (determined by `toFieldLabel`), its R-parity is calculated as , where is the R-parity of the field . In this formulation, a total R-parity of corresponds to a term that preserves R-parity, while corresponds to a term that violates it.
violates R-parity
#violates_RParity_iff_memIn the supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT), a potential term (representing an interaction in the superpotential or the Kähler potential ) violates R-parity, denoted by , if and only if belongs to the set . These terms include the matter-Higgs mixing term , the trilinear matter interaction , the higher-dimensional superpotential operators and , and the Kähler potential terms and .
Potential terms contributing to proton decay in GUT
#causeProtonDecayThe finite set of interaction terms in the supersymmetric Grand Unified Theory (GUT) potential that contribute to proton decay. This set consists of the following operators: - : The dimension-5 superpotential operator . - : The trilinear matter superpotential interaction . - : The superpotential operator . - : The Kähler potential term .
