# A Minimal SU(5) SuperGUT in Pure Gravity Mediation

## TL;DR

This paper explores a minimal supersymmetric SU(5) GUT model within pure gravity mediation, examining effects of high-scale boundary conditions and higher dimensional operators on particle masses, proton decay, and dark matter.

## Contribution

It introduces a novel analysis of PGM with boundary conditions beyond the unification scale and includes higher dimensional operators, expanding the viable parameter space and phenomenological predictions.

## Key findings

- Relaxed constraints on tanβ due to extended running.
- Potential for proton decay within experimental reach.
- Bino can be the dark matter candidate with specific mass degeneracies.

## Abstract

The lack of evidence for low-scale supersymmetry suggests that the scale of supersymmetry breaking may be higher than originally anticipated. However, there remain many motivations for supersymmetry including gauge coupling unification and a stable dark matter candidate. Models like pure gravity mediation (PGM) evade LHC searches while still providing a good dark matter candidate and gauge coupling unification. Here, we study the effects of PGM if the input boundary conditions for soft supersymmetry breaking masses are pushed beyond the unification scale and higher dimensional operators are included. The added running beyond the unification scale opens up the parameter space by relaxing the constraints on $\tan\beta$. If higher dimensional operators involving the SU(5) adjoint Higgs are included, the mass of the heavy gauge bosons of SU(5) can be suppressed leading to proton decay, $p\to \pi^0 e^+$, that is within reach of future experiments. Higher dimensional operators involving the supersymmetry breaking field can generate additional contributions to the A- and B-terms of order $m_{3/2}$. The threshold effects involving these A- and B-terms significantly impact the masses of the gauginos and can lead to a bino LSP. In some regions of parameter space the bino can be degenerate with the wino or gluino and give an acceptable dark matter relic density.
