Supersymmetry Hierarchy Problems and Anomalous Horizontal U(1) Symmetry

Abstract

It is suggested that various hierarchy problems in supersymmetric standard model, i.e. the Yukawa hierarchies, the μ problem, and the suppression of dangerous baryon and/or lepton number (B/L) violating couplings, are resolved altogether in the framework of horizontal U(1) symmetry whose spontaneous breaking results in the appearance of one expansion parameter (the Cabibbo angle). Within a reasonable range of U(1) charges, there exist a few models compatible with experiments. The specific sizes of B/L violating couplings of these models are calculated and several phenomenological consequences are discussed.
