We study the supersymmetric standard model with multiple Higgs doublets with gauged $\mathrm{U}(1)_X$ flavor symmetry. When the flavor symmetry is broken by the vacuum expectation value of flavon, the $\mathbb{Z}_3$ symmetry $M_3$ called…

We examine the structure of the quaternion group $Q_8$ and its possible application to the physics of flavor. We find that a $Q_8$ family symmetry is suitable to explain the difference between quark and lepton mixing patterns. Distinctive…
We study renormalizable extensions of the standard model that contain vector-like fermions in a (single) complex representation of the standard model gauge group. There are 11 models where the vector-like fermions Yukawa couple to the…
We study a supersymmetric SO(10) gauge theory in six dimensions compactified on an orbifold. Three sequential quark-lepton families are localized at the three fixpoints where SO(10) is broken to its three GUT subgroups. Split bulk…
We propose models in which the hierarchical structures of the masses and mixing in both quark and lepton sectors are explained by the $S_4^\prime$ modular flavor symmetry near the fixed point $\tau \sim i\infty$. The model provides the…

We present a model which supplements the Standard Electroweak Model with three right-handed neutrinos and one extra scalar doublet which does not develop a vacuum expectation value. With the aid of a discrete symmetry the neutrinos are kept…
We explore the implications of symmetries that remain unbroken at the self-dual point $\tau=i$ in modular invariant theories. Assuming that (a) the three generations of lepton doublets transform as an irreducible representation of a finite…
The flavor-changing gravitational process d --> s + graviton, is evaluated at the one-loop level in the standard electroweak theory with on-shell renormalization. The results we present in the 't Hooft-Feynman gauge are valid for on- and…
We consider symmetric operators of the form $S := A\otimes I_{\mathfrak T} + I_{\mathfrak H} \otimes T$ where $A$ is symmetric and $T = T^*$ is (in general) unbounded. Such operators naturally arise in problems of simulating point contacts…
The mass matrix forms of quarks and leptons are discussed in theory with permutation flavor symmetry. The structure of scalar potential is analyzed in case that electroweak doublet Higgs fields have non-trivial flavor symmetry charges. We…

We investigate the radiative generation of lepton masses and mixing angles in the Standard Model extended by one right-handed neutrino and one extra Higgs doublet. We assume approximate rank-1 Yukawa couplings at a high energy scale and we…
The current work involves augmenting the $\Delta(54)$ discrete flavor model by incorporating two Standard Model Higgs particles into the Inverse Seesaw mechanism. We introduced Weyl fermions and Vector like fermions, which are gauge…
We propose a new mechanism of baryogenesis which proceeds via a CP-violating phase transition. During this phase transition, the coupling of the Weinberg operator is dynamically realised and subsequently a lepton asymmetry is generated via…
In some models of electro-weak interactions the W and Z bosons are considered composites, made up of spin-one-half subconstituents. In these models a spin zero counterpart of the W and Z boson naturally appears, whose higher mass can be…

Flavour symmetries of Froggatt-Nielsen type can naturally reconcile the large quark and charged lepton mass hierarchies and the small quark mixing angles with the observed small neutrino mass hierarchies and their large mixing angles. We…
