Almost commutative geometry offers a specific way to unify general relativity, quantum mechanics and gauge symmetries. The AC-model of elementary particles, arising on this way, naturally embeds the Standard model and predicts doubly…
We analyze a recently proposed extension of the Standard Model based on the SU(4) x SU(2)_L x U(1)_X gauge group, in which baryon number is interpreted as the fourth color and dark matter emerges as a neutral partner of the ordinary quarks…
We use non-perturbative lattice calculations to investigate the finite-temperature confinement transition of stealth dark matter, focusing on the regime in which this early-universe transition is first order and would generate a stochastic…
This paper explores the representation of quantum computing in terms of unitary reflections (unitary transformations that leave invariant a hyperplane of a vector space). The symmetries of qubit systems are found to be supported by…
It is known that Flavor Democracy favors the existence of the fourth standard model (SM) family. In order to give nonzero masses for the first three family fermions Flavor Democracy has to be slightly broken. A parametrization for democracy…
Evidence in favor of supersymmetric grand unification including that based on the observed family multiplet-structure, gauge coupling unification, neutrino oscillations, baryogenesis, and certain intriguing features of quark-lepton masses…
We revisit a theory that proposes a dark charge, $D$, as a dequantization of the electric charge, $Q$. We find that the general arguments of anomaly cancelation and fermion mass generation yield both $D$ and $Q$, nontrivially unified with…
It is set manifest an underlying algebraic structure of Dirac equation and solutions, in terms of Cl2 Clifford algebra projectors and ladder operators. From it, a scheme is proposed for constructing unified field theories by enlarging the…
We present a very simple 4th-generation (4G) model with an Abelian gauge interaction under which only the 4G fermions have nonzero charge. The U(1) gauge symmetry can have a Z_2 residual discrete symmetry (4G-parity), which can stabilize…
The unitary Clifford algebras are described here for the first time, and arise from the intersection of the orthogonal and common symplectic (Weyl) Clifford algebras of the complexification of the canonical phase space. The convergence of…
A field theory is studied where the consistency condition of equations of motion dictates strong correlation between states of "primordial" fermion fields and local value of the dark energy. In regime of the fermion densities typical for…
We investigate the possibility that Dark Matter arises as a composite state of a fundamental confining dynamics, together with the Higgs boson. We focus on the minimal SU(4)$\times$SU(4)/SU(4) model which has both a Dark Matter and a Higgs…
Lepton number is promoted to an $U(1)_L$ gauge symmetry in a simple extension of the standard model. The spontaneous breaking of $U(1)_L$ by three units allows a conserved $Z_3^L$ lepton symmetry to remain, guaranteeing that neutrinos are…
Dark matter is postulated to be a neutral Dirac fermion, charged under a dark $U(1)_D$ gauge symmetry. Scalar partners of the quarks and leptons are also charged under $U(1)_D$. The dark gauge boson $Z_D$ and the dark Higgs boson $h_D$…
A hidden strongly-interacting sector is a possible candidate for dark matter. One scenario consistent with astrophysical constraints is a QCD-like theory with gauge group Sp(4) and two fundamental non-degenerate fermions. We report…
This paper discusses the Higgs and spinor fermion terms of the D4-D5-E6 model of a series of papers (hep-ph/9301210, hep-th/9302030, hep-th/9306011, and hep-th/9402003) an 8-dimensional spacetime is reduced to 4-dimensions. The gauge boson…
Minimal dark matter is an attractive candidate for dark matter because it is stabilized without the need to impose additional symmetries. It is known that the $SU(2)_L$ quintuplet fermion can serve as a minimal dark matter candidate, with…
Since there are dark matter particles (neutrino) with mass about 10^(-1)eV in the universe, the superstructures with a scale of 10^(19) solar mass [large number A is about 10^(19)] appeared around the era of the hydrogen recombination. The…
We investigate the possibility that galactic dark matter could be interacting fermions in the neutrino mass range. Assuming that galactic halos behave like a fluid in hydrostatic and thermal equilibrium, we employ the equation of state for…
We invoke some ideas from finite geometry to map bijectively 135 heptads of mutually commuting three-qubit observables into 135 symmetric four-qubit ones. After labeling the elements of the former set in terms of a seven-dimensional…
