D JO - Physical Review D SP - 015009 EP - 17pp VL - 110 IS - 1 PB - Amer Physical Soc AB - In flavor models the vacuum alignment of flavons is typically achieved via the F-terms of certain fields in the supersymmetric limit. We propose a method for preserving such alignments, up to a rescaling of the vacuum expectation values, even after softly breaking supersymmetry (and the flavor symmetry). This facilitates the vacuum alignment in models which are nonsupersymmetric at low energies. Examples of models with different flavor groups, namely, A4, T7, S4, and Delta & eth;27 & THORN;, are discussed.
