NANOGrav data favors a blue-tilted tensor spectrum with nt ≈ 2.2, radiation-dominated reheating, and alpha-vacuum states over standard Bunch-Davies, with a frequency-dependent alpha suggested to resolve the blue-tilt tension.
SO(10) scalar threshold corrections generate the Higgs quartic enhancement factor k≈6 required by radiative electroweak symmetry breaking, placing the Landau pole at 1.5-2×10^16 GeV near the GUT scale.
