Grand Unified Theories predict relationships between the GUT-scale quark and lepton masses. Using new data in the context of the MSSM, we update the values and uncertainties of the masses and mixing angles for the three generations at the GUT scale. We also update fits to hierarchical patterns in the GUT-scale Yukawa matrices. The new data shows not all the classic GUT-scale mass relationships remain in quantitative agreement at small to moderate tan beta. However, at large tan beta, these discrepancies can be eliminated by finite, tan beta-enhanced, radiative, threshold corrections if the gluino mass has the opposite sign to the wino mass.

    hep-ph 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A Z3 Froggatt-Nielsen model with one flavon reproduces quark and charged lepton hierarchies but yields neutrino mass-squared ratios too small by two orders of magnitude and random PMNS angles.

  3. $A_4$ flavor symmetric model in SUSY SU(5) GUT

    hep-ph 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    An A4-symmetric SUSY SU(5) GUT model realizes running quark and charged lepton masses at ~10^16 GeV via 24 Higgs and flavons and numerically matches neutrino oscillation results.
