Abstract
We argue that the gauge hierarchy phenomenon, properly interpreted in terms of the natural missing vacuum expectation value solution for the adjoint scalar in general supersymmetric grand unified theory, may give insight into both of the basic features of low-energy physics accommodated in the standard model which are some strict color-flavor (or color-family) interrelation and the symmetry structure of weak interactions. There, apart from the ordinary triple matter of the minimal supersymmetric standard model, just three families of the pseudo-Goldstone states are predicted at a TeV scale in the minimal theory.
