We present a supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model which originates from a 10D, N=1, E8 gauge theory. The transition to four dimensions occurs after the dimensional reduction of the theory over the SU(3)/U(1)×U(1)×Z3 space. Making use of the Wilson flux breaking mechanism, the resulting 4D theory is an N=1, SU(3)3 Grand Unified Theory with two U(1)s. After the symmetry breaking of the trinification gauge group, the model is viewed as a split-like supersymmetric version of the Standard Model with an extra gauge singlet that reminds of an NMSSM configuration. A preliminary 1-loop analysis shows great promise, predicting the unification (and first supersymmetry breaking) scale at ∼1015 GeV with no proton decay
and the (second) supersymmetry breaking scale in the region of a few TeV.
