CP symmetry and fermion masses in O(10) grand unification models

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-28 v3

Abstract

O(10) grand unification models which do not necessarily have an extra global symmetry are discussed, taking the model with one 10-plet in the Yukawa sector as an example. A strong correlation between mass ratios and CP is found. The mass relation mt/mb=vu/vdm_t/m_b=v_u/v_d is recovered when GW=0G_W=0; and another special relation mt/mb=GE/GWm_t/m_b=G_E/G_W appears when vd=0v_d=0, where GE,WG_{E,W} are Yukawa coupling constants and vu,dv_{u,d} are VEVs. To facilitate this discussion, a set of O(10)O(10) γ\gamma- matrices is offered based on a physical representation of the spinors and that of the vector of the SO(10)SO(10) group. Flavor changing neutral currents in such models are also discussed.
