The patterns of symmetry breaking in the gauge theories are investigated systematically in the general rotation groups and uni-tary 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.
