Abstract
Many of the ingredients are explored which are needed to develop a
supersymmetric grand unified model based on the Yukawa
structure of a model previously constructed in collaboration with S. Nandi to
explain the quark and lepton masses and mixings in a particular neutrino
scenario. The U(1)F family symmetry can be made anomaly-free with the
introduction of one conjugate pair of SO(10)-singlet neutrinos with the same
U(1)F charge. Due to a plethora of conjugate pairs of supermultiplets, the
model develops a Landau singularity within a factor of 1.5 above the GUT scale.
With the imposition of a Z2 discrete symmetry and under certain conditions,
all higgsino triplets can be made superheavy while just one pair of higgsino
doublets remains light and results in mass matrix textures previously obtained
from the bottom-up approach. Diametrically opposite splitting of the first
and third family scalar quark and lepton masses away from the second family
ones results from the nonuniversal D-term contributions.
