It is argued that the precise three flavor symmetry of hadrons is not SU(3)_F but rather U(4)_F restricted to SU(2)_{ud}*SU(2)_{cs}*U(1) and considered in the limit of frozen charm degree of freedom. Within this scheme the only hypercharge…
An extension of the gauge group $SU(2)_L\otimes U(1)_Y$ of the standard model to the symmetry group $SU(4)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ (3-4-1 for short) is presented. The model does not contain exotic electric charges and anomaly cancellation is…
A model describing the 4.1\sigma\ Wjj anomaly observed by the CDF experiment at the Tevatron collider is introduced. It features new scalar particles which are charged both under the SU(3)_C and the SU(2)_L gauge groups and which couple to…
We examine the effects of SU(3) breaking in the matrix elements of the flavour-diagonal axial currents between octet baryon states and find that SU(3) breaking may be substantial for some matrix elements. We estimate the strange axial…
We investigate the nature of the finite-temperature chiral transition in QCD with two light flavors, in the case of an effective suppression of the the U(1)_A symmetry breaking induced by the axial anomaly, which implies the symmetry…
The $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills matrix model admits self-dual and anti-self-dual instantons. When coupled to $N_f$ flavors of massless quarks, the Euclidean Dirac equation in an instanton background has $n_+$ positive and $n_-$ negative chirality…
In the context of the local gauge group $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_X$, we look for possible four family models, where all the particles carry ordinary electric charges. Thirteen different anomaly-free fermion structures emerge, out…
Flavour changing neutral currents arise in the $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(4)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ extension of the standard model because anomaly cancellation among the fermion families requires one generation of quarks to transform differently from…
An extension of the Standard Model to the local gauge group $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(4)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ as a three-family model is presented. The model does not contain exotic electric charges and we obtain a consistent mass spectrum by…
We examine the possibility of the flavor symmetry being $SU_f(3)$ in which the phenomenologically successful discreet symmetry $A_4$ is embedded. The allowed quadratic and quartic potentials are constructed exploiting the full symmetry…
We analyze two recent models based on the gauge group SU(3)$_c\times$SU(3)$_L\times$U(1)$_N$ where each generation is not anomaly-free, but anomaly cancels when three generations are taken into account. We show that the most general Yukawa…
In the anomaly equation for the singlet axial current the chiral limit of the quark mass term does not vanish but comprises contribution from fermion zero modes whose integral exactly cancels the topological charge arising from the…
We investigate three different axial-vector form factors of the nucleon, $G_A^{0}$, $G_A^3$, $G_A^8$, within the framework of the SU(3) chiral quark-soliton model, emphasizing their strangeness content. We take into account the rotational…
We identify the QCD axion and right-handed (sterile) neutrinos as bound states of an $SU(5)$ chiral gauge theory with Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry arising as a global symmetry of the strong dynamics. The strong dynamics is assumed to…
Violation of the $U(1)$ axial symmetry in QCD is stricter than the chiral $SU(2)$ breaking, simply because of the presence of the quantum axial anomaly. If the QCD gauge coupling is sent to zero, the strength of the $U(1)$ axial breaking…
Extensions of the Standard Model with extra neutral currents due to additional anomalous abelian gauge factors are considered. We summarize the main features of the effective action associated to these theories. They are characterized by an…
We explore 4-dimensional SU(N) gauge theory with a Weyl fermion in an irreducible self-conjugate representation. This theory, in general, has a discrete chiral symmetry. We use 't Hooft anomaly matching condition of the center symmetry and…
An alternative pattern of the chiral symmetry breaking, suggested recently by Stern, is investigated. It could be self-consistent provided that the chiral $SU(N_f) \times SU(N_f)$ symmetry is broken spontaneously down to $SU(N_f) \times…
We elaborate on an extension of the Standard Model with a gauge structure enlarged by a single anomalous U(1), where the presence of a Wess-Zumino term is motivated by the Green-Schwarz mechanism of string theory. The additional gauge…
In the $SU(3)_C \times SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{(B-L)/2}$ extension of the standard model, a minimal (but asymmetric) scalar sector consists of one $SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{(B-L)/2}$ doublet and one $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R$…
