ABSTRACT The t-b-tau unification with positive Higgs mass parameter \mu\ in the
minimal supersymmetric standard model prefers "just so" Higgs splitting and a
light gluino < 500 GeV which appears to be ruled out by the recent LHC
searches. We reanalyze constraints on soft supersymmetry breaking parameters in
this scenario allowing independent splittings among squarks and Higgs doublets
at the grand unification scale and show that it is possible to obtain t-b-tau
unification and satisfy experimental constraints on gluino mass without raising
supersymmetry breaking scale to very high value ~ 20 TeV. We discuss the origin
of independent squark and Higgs splittings in realistic SO(10) models. Just so
Higgs splitting can be induced without significantly affecting the t-b-tau
unification in SO(10) models containing Higgs fields transforming as
10+\bar{126}+126+210. This splitting arises in the presence of non-universal
boundary conditions from mixing between 10 and other Higgs fields. Similarly,
if additional matter fields are introduced then their mixing with the matter
multiplet 16 is shown to generate the squark splitting required to raise the
gluino mass within the t-b-tau unified models with positive \mu.

##### Article: Light staus and enhanced Higgs diphoton rate with non-universal gaugino masses and SO(10) Yukawa unification
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: It is shown that substantially enhanced Higgs to diphoton rate induced by light staus with large left-right mixing in MSSM requires at the GUT scale non-universal gaugino masses with bino and/or wino lighter than gluino. The possibility of such enhancement is investigated in MSSM models with arbitrary gaugino masses at the GUT scale with additional restriction of top-bottom-tau Yukawa unification, as predicted by minimal SO(10) GUTs. Many patterns of gaugino masses leading to enhanced Higgs to diphoton rate and the Yukawa unification are identified. Some of these patterns can be accommodated in a well-motivated scenarios such as mirage mediation or SUSY breaking F-terms being a non-singlet of SO(10). Phenomenological implications of a scenario with non-universal gaugino masses generated by a mixture of the singlet F-term and the F-term in a 24-dimensional representation of SU(5) $\subset$ SO(10) are studied in detail. Possible non-universalities of other soft terms generated by such F-terms are discussed. The enhancement of Higgs to diphoton rate up to 30% can be obtained in agreement with all phenomenological constraints, including vacuum metastability bounds. The lightest sbottom and pseudoscalar Higgs are within easy reach of the 14 TeV LHC. The LSP can be either bino-like or wino-like. The thermal relic abundance in the former case may be in agreement with the cosmological data thanks to efficient stau coannihilation.

##### Article: Yukawa-unified natural supersymmetry
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Previous work on t-b-\tau Yukawa-unified supersymmetry, as expected from SUSY GUT theories based on the gauge group SO(10), tended to have exceedingly large electroweak fine-tuning (EWFT). Here, we examine supersymmetric models where we simultaneously require low EWFT ("natural SUSY") and a high degree of Yukawa coupling unification, along with a light Higgs scalar with m_h\sim125 GeV. As Yukawa unification requires large tan\beta\sim50, while EWFT requires rather light third generation squarks and low \mu\sim100-250 GeV, B-physics constraints from BR(B\to X_s\gamma) and BR(B_s\to \mu+\mu-) can be severe. We are able to find models with EWFT \Delta\lesssim 50-100 (better than 1-2% EWFT) and with Yukawa unification as low as R_yuk\sim1.3 (30% unification) if B-physics constraints are imposed. This may be improved to R_yuk\sim1.2 if additional small flavor violating terms conspire to improve accord with B-constraints. We present several Yukawa-unified natural SUSY (YUNS) benchmark points. LHC searches will be able to access gluinos in the lower 1-2 TeV portion of their predicted mass range although much of YUNS parameter space may lie beyond LHC14 reach. If heavy Higgs bosons can be accessed at a high rate, then the rare H, A\to \mu+\mu- decay might allow a determination of tan\beta\sim50 as predicted by YUNS models. Finally, the predicted light higgsinos should be accessible to a linear e+e- collider with \sqrt{s}\sim0.5 TeV.

• ##### Article: A predictive Yukawa unified SO(10) model: Higgs and sparticle masses
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We revisit a class of supersymmetric SO(10) models with t-b-τ Yukawa coupling unification condition, with emphasis on the prediction of the Higgs mass. We discuss qualitative features in this model that lead to a Higgs mass prediction close to 125 GeV. We show this with two distinct computing packages, Isajet and SuSpect, and also show that they yield similar global features in the parameter space of this model. We find that t-b-τ Yukawa coupling unification prefers values of the CP-odd Higgs mass m A to be around 600–800 GeV, with all colored sparticle masses above 3 TeV. We also briefly discuss prospects for testing this scenario with the ongoing and planned direct dark matter detection experiments. In this class of models with t-b-τ Yukawa unification, the neutralino dark matter particle is heavy ( ${m_{{\widetilde{\chi}_1^0}}}$ ≳ 400 GeV), which coannihilates with a stau to yield 1 the correct relic abundance.
