A new non-universal abelian extension $\mathrm{G_{SM}}\otimes \mathrm{U(1)}_{X}$ to the Standard Model free from chiral anomalies is presented. The new $X$ charges distinguish among generations so as the fermion mass matrices get…
A non anomalous horizontal $U(1)_H$ gauge symmetry can be responsible for the fermion mass hierarchies of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Imposing the consistency conditions for the absence of gauge anomalies yields the following…
There is no reason why the gauge symmetry extension is family universal as in the standard model and the most well-motivated models, e.g. left-right symmetry and grand unification. Hence, we propose a simplest extension of the standard…
The flavor problem, neutrino physics and the fermion mass hierarchy are important motivations to extend the Standard Model into the TeV scale. A new family non-universal extension is presented with three Higgs doublets, one Higgs singlet…
We present a flavour non-universal extension of the Standard Model combined with the idea of Higgs compositeness. At the TeV scale, the gauge groups $SU(2)_R$ and $U(1)_{B-L}$ are assumed to act in a non-universal manner on light- and…
Adding right-handed neutrino singlets and/or fermion triplets to the particle content of the Standard Model allows for the implementation of the seesaw mechanism to give mass to neutrinos and, simultaneously, for the construction of…
The flavor structure of quarks and leptons is not yet fully understood, but it hints a more fundamental theory of non-universal generations. We therefore propose a simple extension of the Standard Model by flipping (i.e., enlarging) the…
The possibility of radiative generation of fermion masses from soft supersymmetry breaking chiral flavor violation is explored. Consistent models are identified and classified. Phenomenological implications for electric dipole moments and…
The family symmetry $SU(3)\otimes U(1)$ is proposed to solve flavor problems about fermion masses and flavor mixings. It's breaking is implemented by some flavon fields at the high-energy scale. In addition a discrete group $Z_{2}$ is…
Supersymmetric theories involving a spontaneously broken flavor symmetry can lead to fermion masses which vanish at tree level but are generated by radiative corrections. In the context of supersymmetric theories with minimal low energy…
We study $b \to s \ell_1^+ \ell_2^-$ transitions, both for the lepton flavour conserving $\ell_1=\ell_2$ and violating case $\ell_1 \neq \ell_2$, in a minimal extension of the Standard Model proposed in [1]. In this framework, the Standard…
Guided by the flipping principle, we propose a novel extension of the Standard Model based on a double right-handed $U(1)$ gauge symmetry. In this framework, all left-handed fermions are neutral, while right-handed fermions of the third…
We propose a class of models based on the parity invariant Left-Right Symmetric Model (LRSM), which incorporates the mechanism of radiative generation of fermion masses while simultaneously possessing the solution to the Strong CP problem.…
We present a class of models based on a gauged $U(1)_F$ flavor symmetry that explains the hierarchical structure of fermion masses and mixings via the Froggatt-Nielsen (FN) mechanism, while also solving the strong CP problem by the…
An abelian gauge extension of the Standard Model is proposed with a fourth generation. The fourth generation fermions obtain their masses from a heavier Higgs doublet which makes no tree level contributions to the first three generations…
We present a model of fermion masses based on a minimal, non-Abelian discrete symmetry that reproduces the Yukawa matrices usually associated with U(2) theories of flavor. Mass and mixing angle relations that follow from the simple form of…
We consider the generation of fermion masses in an emergent model of electroweak symmetry breaking with composite $W,Z$ gauge bosons. A universal bulk fermion profile in a warped extra dimension is used for all fermion flavors. Electroweak…
We investigate the scalar and pseudoscalar spectrum of the $SU(2)$ gauge theory with $N_f=2$ flavours of fermions in the fundamental representation using non perturbative lattice simulations. We provide first benchmark estimates of the mass…
We show that a recently discovered non-perturbative field-theoretical mechanism giving mass to elementary fermions, is also capable of generating a mass for the electro-weak bosons and can thus be used as a viable alternative to the Higgs…
We propose a neutrino model in which neutrino masses are generated at one loop level and three right-handed fermions have non-trivial charges under $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry in no conflict with anomaly cancellation. After the…
