Description

A brief summary of some of the recent developments in grand unification and B and L conservation is given. Proton stability in supergravity unified models is discussed. Also discussed are the effects of supersymmetric dark matter constraints and the constraints of proton lifetime on the SUSY spectrum. Other topics reviewed include Planck scale effects and p decay, effects of textures, and extension to nonminimal models including models with many Higgs triplets. Recent developments in GUTs and strings are also discussed
