SUM-RULES IN THE SUPERPARTNER SPECTRUM OF THE MINIMAL SUPERSYMMETRIC STANDARD MODEL

Assuming that the universal sum rules for soft supersymmetry-breaking terms, which have been recently found both in four-dimensional superst ring models and in supersymmertic gauge-Yukawa unified gauge models, a re satisfied above and at the grand unification scale, we investigate their low energy consequences and derive sum rules in the superpartner spectrum of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM). These s um rules contain only observable parameters of the MSSM, and could be experimentally verified in future. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
