$\mathbf{SO(10)}\times \mathbf{S_4} $ Grand Unified Theory of Flavour and Leptogenesis
Abstract
We propose a Grand Unified Theory of Flavour, based on together with a non-Abelian discrete group , under which the unified three quark and lepton 16-plets are unified into a single triplet . The model involves a further discrete group which controls the Higgs and flavon symmetry breaking sectors. The CSD2 flavon vacuum alignment is discussed, along with the GUT breaking potential and the doublet-triplet splitting, and proton decay is shown to be under control. The Yukawa matrices are derived in detail, from renormalisable diagrams, and neutrino masses emerge from the type I seesaw mechanism. A full numerical fit is performed with 15 input parameters generating 19 presently constrained observables, taking into account supersymmetry threshold corrections. The model predicts a normal neutrino mass ordering with a CP oscillation phase of , an atmospheric angle in the first octant and neutrinoless double beta decay with meV. We discuss leptogenesis, which fixes the second right-handed neutrino mass to be GeV, in the natural range predicted by the model.
