Models with spontaneously broken parity symmetry can solve the strong $CP$ problem in a natural way. We construct such a model in the context of $\SU3^3$ unification. Parity has the conventional meaning in this model, and the gauge group is…
We discuss a simple model, based on the gauge group ${\rm SU}(3)_C\otimes {\rm SU}(2)_L \otimes \text{U}(1)_Y\otimes \text{U}(1)_R$, where the Nelson-Barr solution to the strong CP problem is implemented. This model automatically provides a…
In order to understand some frameworks for CP Violation scenarios in the scalar sector, a 331 model was considered which its main property is the incorporation of a local group symmetry SU(3) in the electroweak sector. In particular, a 331…
We present the supersymmetric $SU(5)$ models which provide a simple ``all order'' solution to the doublet-triplet splitting problem through the missing doublet mechanism. The crucial role is played by the anomalous $U(1)_A$ gauge symmetry…
We formulate general conditions under which the strong CP problem is solved by spontaneous CP violation. Quark-mass matrix elements are polynomials in the CP-breaking order parameters, engineered such that their determinant is a real…
In models with extended scalar sectors consisting of multiple Higgs doublets that trigger spontaneous electroweak symmetry breaking, it might be expected that the abundance of dimensionful quadratic couplings in the scalar potential could…
We analyze the phenomenological consequences of assuming spontaneous CP violation in an SU(3) x U(1) model with three Higgs triplets and one sextuplet. After the identification of the relevant physical scalars, we estimate the contributions…
I briefly review solutions to the strong CP problem based on axions, parity invariance, CP-invariance, and present a new idea based on CP as part of a spontaneously broken flavour symmetry such as a U(1) or modular invariance.
Here we propose models with $SU(2)_L\otimes SU(2)_R\otimes U(1)_{B-L}$ electroweak gauge symmetry in which parity (or charge conjugation) is broken explicitly and the interactions of left- and right-handed fermions are completely different…
Three symmetry constraints on the CP violations in QCD are discussed in this paper. In order to generate CP violating observables from QCD, these constraints require: (1) spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking, (2) explicit chiral symmetry…
A model based on SUSY SO(10) combined with U(2) family symmetry constructed recently by the authors is generalized to include phases in the mass matrices leading to CP violation. In contrast with the commonly used effective operator…
Scalar triplet extensions of the Standard Model provide an interesting playground for the explanation of neutrino mass suppression through the type-II seesaw mechanism. Propelled by the possible connections with leptonic CP violation, we…
We put forward the conjecture that all CP violating phenomena may have a common origin. In order to illustrate our idea, we present a minimal model where CP is spontaneously broken at a high energy scale, through the phase in the vacuum…
We propose theories of a complete mirror world with parity (P) solving the strong CP problem. P exchanges the entire Standard Model (SM) with its mirror copy. We derive bounds on the two new mass scales that arise: $v'$ where parity and…
We use parity (P) to set $\theta_{QCD}$ to zero in the minimal left-right symmetric model with a bi-doublet Higgs, add a heavy vectorlike quark family, and obtain in a novel manner the Nelson Barr (NB) form associated so far only with…
The observation of neutrino masses leads to the possibility of leptonic mixing and CP violation. One of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model giving rise to neutrino masses consists of the introduction of one righthanded neutrino…
In combination with supersymmetry, flavor symmetry may relate quarks with leptons, even in the absence of a grand-unification group. We propose an SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) model where both supersymmetry and the assumed A4 flavor symmetries are…
We construct a model based on SUSY SO(10) combined with U(2) family symmetry including complex phases leading to CP violation. In contrast with the commonly used effective operator approach, \bar{126}-dimensional Higgs fields are utilized…
The effect of spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry over the spectrum of highly excited hadrons is addressed in the framework of a microscopic chiral potential quark model (Generalised Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model) with a vectorial…
We present a top-condensation model in which the CP symmetry is spontaneously broken at the electroweak scale due to the condensation of two composite Higgs doublets. In particular the CP-violating phase of the CKM matrix is generated. A…
