Abstract

Finite Unified Theories (FUTs) are N = 1 supersymmetric GUT’s which have the remarkable feature of being all-loop finite beyond the unification point. They also have impressive predictive power. We present here a review of the recent developments of the softly broken sector of N = 1 FUTs. The new characteristic predictions of FUTs are: 1) The lightest Higgs boson mass is predicted to be in the window 120-130 GeV, in case the LSP is neutralino, while in case the LSP is the \( \tilde{\tau } \) (which can be consistently accommodated in presence of bilinear R-parity violating terms) it can be as light as 111 GeV. 2) The s-spectrum starts above several hundreds of GeV.
