In this thesis, we develop techniques for the analysis of SO(2N) invariant couplings which allows a full exhibition of the SU(N) invariant content of the spinor and tensor representations. The techniques utilize a so called Basic Theorem which we first derive. Using this method an evaluation of the trilinear couplings of the 16 plet of matter and of the 16 and $\bar{16}$ plets Higgs is given. In particular, we give a full determination of couplings in their SU(5) decomposed form, involving $16 16$ and the 10, 120 and $\bar{126}$ tensor fields together with $\bar{16} 16$ ($16 \bar{16}$) and the 1, 45 and 210 tensor fields. We also compute the vector couplings of $16 16$ ($\bar{16} \bar{16}$) and the 1, 45, 210 gauge fields. Computation of dimension-5 operators formed from 16 and $\bar {16}$ arising from the mediation of 1, 10, 45 and 210 plet of heavy Higgs, are also analyzed. Complete supersymmetric vector couplings belonging to the singlet and the adjoint representation of the SO(10) gauge group are computed in the Wess-Zumino gauge. An $SU(5)\times U(1)$ decomposition of the vector couplings ${16}-16-210$ is completely carried out using the Wess-Zumino gauge and its transition to a non linear sigma type model is shown. The utility of these results in the analysis of quark-lepton textures and of proton decay is briefly discussed. Possible future applications of the techniques given here such as in the development of string landscape SO(10) type models is briefly pointed out.
