Abstract
The patterns of symmetry breaking in the gauge theories are investigated systematically in the general rotation groups and unitary groups, with Higgs scalars in the various representations up to second-rank tensors. The occurrences of the fermion mass relations and pseudo-Goldstone bosons are also discussed in various cases.Keywords
