Abstract
gauge-Higgs grand unification in the Randall-Sundrum warped space is proposed. Orbifold boundary conditions and one brane scalar field reduce to the standard model symmetry, which is further broken to by the Hosotani mechanism. In a minimal model quarks and leptons are contained in a multiplet in of in each generation. Proton decay is naturally suppressed by a conserved fermion number.
