Title: Radiative corrections in grand unified theories based on N = 1 supergravity. II. Gauge theories

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)

The effect of radiative corrections in supersymmetric grand unified theories with soft- supersymmetry-breaking terms induced by N = 1 supergravity is analyzed. It is shown that any mass hierarchy present in the limit of unbroken supersymmetry is stable under radiative corrections induced by soft-supersymmetry-breaking terms, provided the theory does not contain a light singlet field that transforms as a singlet under the unbroken subgroup of the theory below the grand-unification scale.
