Description

We describe a simple N = 1 supersymmetric GUT based on the group SU(5) x U(1) which has the following virtues: the gauge group is broken down to the SU(3)C x SU(2)L x U(1)y of the standard model using just 10, 10 Higgs representations, and the doublet-triplet mass splitting problem is solved naturally by a very simple missing-partner mechanism. The successful supersymmetric GUT prediction for sin2θw can be maintained, whilst there are no fermion mass relations. The gauge group and representation structure of the model may be obtainable from the superstring. (orig.)
