A bstractWe study the correlation between proton lifetime and leptonic CP violation in a class of renormalizable supersymmetric SO(10) grand unified theories (GUTs) with 10, 126 and 120 Higgs fields, which provides a unified description of all fermion masses and a possible resolution for the strong CP problem. This specific model is unique in that it can so far be compatible with current proton lifetime limits for a supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking scale as low as 5 TeV due to the presence of a specific Yukawa texture. Our investigation reveals that a discovery of leptonic CP violation in neutrino oscillations would lead to substantial reduction of the parameter space of the model and the potential ruling out of type-II dominance in the neutrino mass seesaw. Furthermore, the previously predicted proton partial lifetimes are sufficiently long for only certain values of the leptonic CP phase.
