Fermion Masses and Hierarchy of Symmetry Breaking
We suggest that the breaking of a symmetry unifying the families of fermions occurs in stages. We consider the total Lagrangian to be invariant under the group SU(2) xU(1) x G, where G is a discrete group. The Higgs potential is, however, invariant under SU(2) xU(1) xE, where E 3 G. In a first stage c is broken to a subgroup H C 5, but H is not contained in G. The u and d quarks are naturally m...
متن کاملSoft SUSY breaking and family symmetry
A spontaneously broken non-Abelian SU(3) family symmetry can generate a realistic form for quark, charged lepton and neutrino masses and mixing angles. It also gives a new solution to the SUSY flavour problem by ensuring near family degeneracy of the soft mass SUSY breaking terms. However the need to generate large third generation fermion masses means that the group must be strongly broken to ...
متن کاملSpontaneous Family Symmetry Breaking And Fermion Mixing
We propose a theory to describe fermion mixing. The theory respects the maximal abelian family symmetries which are spontaneously broken down at a large scale. We find that quark mixing can be well described in this theory. Some concrete models are constructed. The crucial point for model building is to introduce some new particles which are SU(2) gauge singlets and carry -1/3 electric charge. ...
متن کاملGauge Symmetry Breaking with a Large Mass Hierarchy
Recently, new possibilities of Grand Unified Theories (GUTs) in the context of higher dimensional field theories have extensively been explored to avoid common problems of four-dimensional GUTs. The GUT symmetry breaking scale is naturally given by the inverse length of the extra dimensions, but the origin of the weak scale is still a mystery. In this paper, we propose a higher dimensional scen...
متن کاملHiggsless Gauge Symmetry Breaking with a Large Mass Hierarchy
We propose a mechanism of Higgsless gauge symmetry breaking with a large mass hierarchy. We consider a 5D gauge theory on an orbifold S1/Z2. The gauge symmetry is broken by orbifolding and also nontrivial boundary conditions at fixed points. All 4D modes which survive at low energies are found to be localized around fixed points. Supersymmetry plays an important role in our mechanism. The tree-...
