Can Up FCNC solve the $\Delta A_{CP}$ puzzle?

We investigate the attempt using flavor violation gauge interaction in the up sector to explain the LHCb recently observed large $\Delta A_{CP}$ ($A_{CP}(D^{0}\to K^{+}K^{-})-A_{CP}(D^{0}\to \pi^{+}\pi^{-})$). We study an Abelian model that only right-handed up quarks is charged under it and the 1-3 coupling is maximized. The simultaneous 1-3 2-3 mixing is realized by a quark mixing of 1-2 generation. Given the easy identification of top quark, the model can be directly tested by $\Delta F=1$ and $\Delta F=2$ processes at the hadron colliders as associated top production $g c \to t Z^{\prime}$ or same-sign top scattering $u u\to t t$. The direct search bounds are still consistent with the assumption that $ut$ and $ct$ couplings are equal but the same-sign top scattering bound is expected to be reached very soon. However, since there is no CKM-like suppression, the corresponding parameter space for generating $\Delta A_{CP}$ is completely excluded by the $D^{0}-\bar{D}^{0}$ mixing. We conclude that the up FCNC type models cannot explain the $\Delta A_{CP}$ while to be consistent with the $D^{0}-\bar{D}^{0}$ mixing constraint at the same time. On the other hand, a model as SM with fourth family extension has better chance to explain the large $\Delta A_{CP}$ consistently.
