Abstract

We study the little groups of the minima of the Higgs potential built on the representation 75 of SU(5). We find a minimum with a non maximal little subalgebra, but an additional discrete group so that the little group is maximal. We find a large class of minimas with su(3) + su(2) + u(1) little algebra.
