We demonstrate that in the process of deducing the constraint on the electroweak mixing angle $\theta_{W}$ in our paper, we have indeed been working with three mass scales while implementing (331) model.
This paper is concerned with relationships of weakly mixing, topologically weakly mixing, and sensitivity for non-autonomous discrete systems. It is shown that weakly mixing implies topologically weakly mixing and sensitivity for measurable…
