The gauge invariant and anomaly-free 331 model is studied with $R_\xi$ gauges in order to see which of the right-handed singlet between the case (i), assigning the bosonic singlet to the counterpart of 3 and $\bar 3$ representations, and…
A new flipped $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(4)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ model without exotic electric charges is proposed. All the quarks families are arranged in the same representation while leptons generations are in different representations leading to a…
Models based on the extended $SU(3)_{C}\times SU(3)_{L}\times U(1)_{X}$ (331) gauge group usually follow a common pattern: two families of left-handed quarks are placed in anti-triplet representations of the $SU(3)_{L}$ group; the remaining…
A detailed and general study of the fermionic structure of the 331 models with \beta arbitrary is carried out based on the criterion of cancellation of anomalies. We consider models with an arbitrary number of lepton and quark generations,…
One of the most important and unanswered problems in particle physics is the origin of the three generations of quarks and leptons. The standard Model does not provide any hint regarding its sequential charge assignments, which remain a…
We explore the constraints imposed by the cancellation of triangle anomalies on models in which the flavour anomalies reported by LHCb and other experiments are due to an extra U(1)' gauge boson Z'. We assume universal and rational U(1)'…
The standard model has for massless quarks and leptons "miraculously" no triangle anomalies due to the fact that the sum of all possible traces $Tr [\tau^{Ai}$$ \tau^{Bj}$$ \tau^{Ck}]$ --- where $\tau^{Ai}, \tau^{Bi}$ and $\tau^{Ck}$ are…
In the context of 331 models we analyze the phenomenology of exotic $T$ quarks with electric charge 2/3. We establish bounds for the corresponding masses and mixing angles and study the decay modes $T\to bW$, $tZ$ and $qH$. It is found that…
Under the conception that the total number three of fermion families must have the one and the same gauge theoretical origin as all other threes which accompany the single family grand unifiable group structure, we trade the trinification…
The simplest non-abelian gauge extension of the electroweak standard model, the $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_N$, known as 3-3-1 model, has a minimal version which demands the least possible fermionic content to account for the whole…
We first review the three known chiral anomalies in four dimensions and then use the anomaly free conditions to study the uniqueness of quark and lepton representations and charge quantizations in the standard model. We also extend our…
We show that in 3-3-1 models it is possible to implement an extremely flat scalar potential, i.e., a zero contribution to the cosmological constant, and still having realistic values for the masses of the scalar Higgs fields. Besides, when…
A general calculational method is applied to investigate symmetry relations among divergent amplitudes in a free fermion model. A very traditional work on this subject is revisited. A systematic study of one, two and three point functions…
The 331 model, an extension of the standard electroweak theory to $SU(3)_L\times U(1)_X$, naturally predicts three families of quarks and leptons via the requirement of anomaly cancellation. This is accomplished by making one of the quark…
In the framework of a 3-3-1 model with a minimal scalar sector, known as the economical 3-3-1 model, we study its capabilities of generating realistic quark masses. After a detailed study of the symmetries of the model, before and after the…
A general study of the fermionic structure of the 331 models with \beta arbitrary shows the possibility of obtaining 331 vector-like models with mirror fermions. On one hand, the existence of mirror fermions gives a possible way to fit the…
In 3-3-1 models anomaly cancellation requires that one of the three families of quarks transforms as triplet by $\text{SU}(3)_\text{L}$ with the other two transforming necessarily as anti-triplet. This is an important feature of the model…
We present new techniques for finding anomaly-free sets of fermions. Although the anomaly cancellation conditions typically include cubic equations with integer variables that cannot be solved in general, we prove by construction that any…
Anomalies can be elegantly analyzed by means of the Dai-Freed theorem. In this framework it is natural to consider a refinement of traditional anomaly cancellation conditions, which sometimes leads to nontrivial extra constraints in the…
These lectures on anomalies are relatively self-contained and intended for graduate students who are familiar with the basics of quantum field theory. We begin with several derivations of the abelian anomaly: anomalous transformation of the…
