Studies of R-parity violating (RPV) supersymmetry typically assume that nucleon stability is protected by approximate baryon number (B) or lepton number (L) conservation. We present a new class of RPV models that violate B and L simultaneously (BLRPV), without inducing rapid nucleon decay. These models feature an approximate $Z_2^e times Z_2^mu times Z_2^tau$ flavor symmetry, which forbids 2-body nucleon decay and ensures that flavor antisymmetric $L L E^c$ couplings are the only non-negligible L-violating operators. Nucleons are predicted to decay through $N rightarrow K e mu u$ and $n rightarrow e mu u$; the resulting bounds on RPV couplings are rather mild. Novel collider phenomenology arises because the superpartners can decay through both L-violating and B-violating couplings. This can lead to, for example, final states with high jet multiplicity and multiple leptons of different flavor, or a spectrum in which depending on the superpartner, either B or L violating decays dominate. BLRPV can also provide a natural setting for displaced $tilde{ u} rightarrow mu e$ decays, which evade many existing collider searches for RPV supersymmetry.

In order to address the baryon asymmetry in the Universe one needs to understand the origin of baryon (B) and lepton (L) number violation. In this article, we discuss the mechanism of baryogenesis via leptogenesis to explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry in theories with spontaneous breaking of baryon and lepton number. In this context, a lepton asymmetry is generated through the out-of-equilibrium decays of right-handed neutrinos at the high-scale, while local baryon number must be broken below the multi-TeV scale to satisfy the cosmological bounds on the dark matter relic density. We demonstrate how the lepton asymmetry generated via leptogenesis can be converted in two different ways: a) in the theory predicting Majorana dark matter the lepton asymmetry is converted into a baryon asymmetry, and b) in the theory with Dirac dark matter the decays of right-handed neutrinos can generate lepton and dark matter asymmetries that are then partially converted into a baryon asymmetry. Consequently, we show how to explain the matter-antimatter asymmetry, the dark matter relic density and neutrino masses in theories for local baryon and lepton number.
We list operators of the superpotential of the effective MSSM that emerges from the NMSGUT up to sextic degree. We give illustrative expressions for the coefficients in terms of NMSGUT parameters. We also estimate the impact of GUT scale threshold corrections on these effective operators in view of the demonstration that $B$ violation via quartic superpotential terms can be suppressed to acceptable levels after including such corrections in the NMSGUT. We find a novel $B, B-L$ violating quintic operator that leads to the decay mode $nto e^- K^+$. We also remark that the threshold corrections to the Type I seesaw mechanism make the deviation of right handed neutrino masses from the GUT scale more natural while Type II seesaw neutrino masses, which earlier tended to utterly negligible receive threshold enhancement. Our results are of relevance for analyzing $B-L$ violating operator based, sphaleron safe, Baryogenesis.
The Baryon-Lepton difference ($B-L$) is increasingly emerging as a possible new symmetry of the weak interactions of quarks and leptons as a way to understand the small neutrino masses. There is the possibility that current and future searches at colliders and in low energy rare processes may provide evidence for this symmetry. This paper provides a brief overview of the early developments that led to B-L as a possible symmetry beyond the standard model, and also discusses some recent developments.
Supersymmetry is under pressure from LHC searches requiring colored superpartners to be heavy. We demonstrate R-parity violating spectra for which the dominant signatures are not currently well searched for at the LHC. In such cases, the bounds can be as low as 800 GeV on both squarks and gluinos. We demonstrate that there are nontrivial constraints on squark and gluino masses with baryonic RPV (UDD operators) and show that in fact leptonic RPV can allow comparable or even lighter superpartners. The constraints from many searches are weakened if the LSP is significantly lighter than the colored superpartners, such that it is produced with high boost. The LSP decay products will then be collimated, leading to the miscounting of leptons or jets and causing such models to be missed even with large production cross-sections. Other leptonic RPV scenarios that evade current searches include the highly motivated case of a higgsino LSP decaying to a tau and two quarks, and the case of a long-lived LSP with a displaced decay to electrons and jets. The least constrained models can have SUSY production cross-sections of ~pb or larger, implying tens of thousands of SUSY events in the 8 TeV data. We suggest novel searches for these signatures of RPV, which would also improve the search for general new physics at the LHC.
In the SUSY SO(10) GUT context, we study the exclusive processes $B to K^{(*)} l^+l^-(l=mu,tau)$. Using the Wilson coefficients of relevant operators including the new operators $Q_{1,2}^{(prime)}$ which are induced by neutral Higgs boson (NHB) penguins, we evaluate some possible observables associated with these processes like, the invariant mass spectrum (IMS), lepton pair forward backward asymmetry (FBA), lepton polarization asymmetries etc. In this model the contributions from Wilson coefficients $C_{Q_{1,2}}^prime$, among new contributions, are dominant. Our results show that the NHB effects are sensitive to the FBA, $dL/dhat{s}$, and $dT/dhat{s}$ of $B to K^{(*)} tau^+ tau^-$ decay, which are expected to be measured in B factories, and the average of the normal polarization $dN/dhat{s}$ can reach several percent for $B to K mu^+ mu^-$ and it is 0.05 or so for $Bto K tau^+tau^-$, which could be measured in the future super B factories and provide a useful information to probe new physics and discriminate different models.
