Abstract
We study a toy model with the symmetry breaking pattern of the extended symmetry of . A "fermion-Higgs mismatching" symmetry breaking pattern is proposed for more realistic model building. Within such symmetry breaking pattern, only one Higgs doublet develops vacuum expectation value for the spontaneous electroweak symmetry breaking, and gives tree-level top quark mass. A natural VEV splittings in the breaking Higgs fields gives tree-level masses to both bottom quark and tau lepton. The SM-like Higgs boson discovered at the LHC can have Yukawa couplings to bottom quark and tau lepton as in the SM prediction, and this suggests the symmetry breaking scale to be .
