Within the supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theory (GUT), a new mechanism, giving the light Higgs doublet as a pseudo-Goldstone mode, is suggested. Realizing this mechanism, we present an explicit model with fully realistic phenomenology. In particular, desirable symmetry breaking and natural all-order hierarchy are achieved. The constructed model allows one to have a realistic fermion pattern, nucleon stability, and successful gauge coupling unification. The suggested mechanism opens prospects in the field for a novel $SO(10)$ GUT model building and for further investigations.

Motivated by recent constructions of TeV-scale strongly-coupled dynamics, either associated with the Higgs sector itself as in pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) Higgs models or in theories of asymmetric dark matter, we show that stable solitonic Q- balls can be formed from light pion-like pNGB fields carrying a conserved global quantum number in the presence of the Higgs field. We focus on the case of thick-wall Q-balls, where solutions satisfying all constraints are shown to exist over a range of parameter values. In the limit that our approximations hold, the Q-balls are weakly bound and parametrically large, and the form of the interactions of the light physical Higgs with the Q-ball is determined by the breaking of scale symmetry.
If the Higgs boson is a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (PNGB), the $hZgamma$ contact interaction induced by the $mathcal{O}(p^4)$ invariants of the non-linear sigma model is free from its nonlinearity effects. The process $hrightarrow Zgamma$ can be used to eliminate the universal effects of heavy particles, which can fake the nonlinearity effects of the PNGB Higgs boson in the process $hrightarrow V^*V$ ($V=W^pm$, $Z$). We demonstrate that the ratio of the signal strength of $hrightarrow Zgamma$ and $hrightarrow V^*V$ is good to distinguish the signature of the PNGB Higgs boson from Higgs coupling deviations.
Supersymmetric GUTs based on SO(10) gauge group are leading contenders to describe particle physics beyond the Standard Model. Among these the New minimal supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theory (NMSGUT) based on Higgs system 10+120+210+126+$overline{126}$ has been developing since 1982. It now successfully fits the whole standard Model gauge coupling, symmetry breaking and fermion mass-mixing data as well as the neutrino mass and mixing data in terms of NMSGUT parameters and just 6 soft supersymmetry breaking parameters defined at the GUT scale. In this thesis we study the phenomenology of NMSGUT, its implications for inflationary and Cold Dark matter cosmology and develop Renormalization group(RG) equations for the flow of NMSGUT couplings in the extreme ultraviolet. In the first part we show that superheavy threshold effects can drastically lower the SO(10) yukawa couplings required for realistic unification and this cures the long standing problem of fast proton decay in Susy GUT. Then we propose a novel Supersymmetric Seesaw inflection(SSI) scenario based upon a SU(2)_L x U(1)_R x U(1)_{B-L} invariant model, where the inflation mass is controlled by the large conjugate sneutrino mass. We show that it is much less fine-tuned and more stable than Dirac sneutrino based MSSM inflation. NMSGUT can embed SSI, and even provide a large tensor scalar ratio, but obstacles in achieving enough inflation remain. The NMSGUT Bino LSP is a good dark matter candidate when it can co-annihilate with a nearly degenerate sfermion as in fits with a light smuon. We also calculate two loop NMSGUT gauge-Yukawa Renormalization Group(RG) beta functions and show that GUT scale negative Higgs mass squared parameters required by NMSGUT fits can arise by RG flows from positive values at the Planck scale.
The clockwork mechanism, which can naturally explain the origin of small numbers, is implemented in $SO(10)$ grand unified theories to address the origin of hierarchies in fermion masses and mixings. We show that a minimal Yukawa sector involving a $10_H$ and $overline{126}_H$ of Higgs bosons, extended with two clockwork chains consisting of $16+overline{16}$ vector-like fermions, can explain the hierarchical patterns with all the Yukawa couplings being of order one. Emergence of a realistic mass spectrum does not require any symmetry that distinguishes the three generations. We develop clockwork-extended $SO(10)$ GUTs both in the context of SUSY and non-SUSY frameworks. Implementation of the mechanism in non-SUSY scenario assumes a Peccei-Quinn symmetry realized at an intermediate scale, with the clockwork sector carrying non-trivial charges, which solves the strong CP problem and provides axion as a dark matter candidate.
We perform a detailed investigation of a Grand Unified Theory (GUT)-inspired theory of gauge-Higgs unification. Scanning the models parameter space with adapted numerical techniques, we contrast the scenarios low energy limit with existing SM and collider search constraints. We discuss potential modifications of di-Higgs phenomenology at hadron colliders as sensitive probes of the gauge-like character of the Higgs self-interactions and find that for phenomenologically viable parameter choices modifications of the order of 20% compared to the SM cross section can be expected. While these modifications are challenging to observe at the LHC, a future 100 TeV hadron collider might be able to constrain the scenario through more precise di-Higgs measurements. We point out alternative signatures that can be employed to constrain this model in the near future.
