Grand unification and group theory: The Higgs problem

The central rôle of group theory in the search for a satisfactory renormalizable gauge theory to unify the theory of fundamental interactions (excluding gravity) is examined. The symmetry breaking needed to produce such theories and the consequent introduction of Higgs scalar particles is studied in detail.
