The interactions and even the number of the Higgs scalar fields are not fixed in the SU(2)U(1) standard model of the electro-weak interactions and the intrinsically chiral nature of the weak interactions is not explained. Embedding…
We consider the unification of gauge, Higgs as well as the matter fields in a 6D N=2 supersymmetric SU(8) gauge theory. The gauge symmetry SU(8) is broken down to SU(4) x SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x U(1)^2 in 4D through T^2/Z_6 orbifold…

We examine the possibility that the SU(2) gauge group of the standard model appears as the dual "magnetic" gauge group of a supersymmetric gauge theory, thus the W and Z (and through mixing, the photon) are composite (or partially…
