Abstract
The latest FermiLab muon $g-2$ result shows a $5\sigma$ discrepancy with a ``widely advertised" Standard Model prediction. We consider a supersymmetric $SU(4)_c \times SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R$ model in which this discrepancy is resolved by including contributions to muon $g-2$ from a relatively light SUSY sector. A variety of realistic coannihilation scenarios can reproduce the observed dark matter relic abundance. With a significantly reduced discrepancy, of order $1 \sigma$ or less, the Higgsino-like dark matter solutions are also viable. We provide benchmark points for these solutions that will be probed in the direct detection dark matter experiments and collider searches.
