Quantization of Axion-Gauge Couplings and Noninvertible Higher Symmetries

Y Choi, M Forslund, HT Lam, SH Shao - Physical Review Letters, 2024 - APS
We derive model-independent quantization conditions on the axion couplings (sometimes
known as the anomaly coefficients) to the standard model gauge group [SU (3)× SU (2)× U …

Gravity and unification: a review

K Krasnov, R Percacci - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
We review various classical unified theories of gravity and other interactions that have
appeared in the literature, paying special attention to scenarios in which spacetime remains …

Particle physics from almost-commutative spacetimes

K Van den Dungen… - Reviews in Mathematical …, 2012 - World Scientific
Our aim in this review paper is to present the applications of Connes' noncommutative
geometry to elementary particle physics. Whereas the existing literature is mostly focused on …

Gauge enhanced quantum criticality between grand unifications: categorical higher symmetry retraction

J Wang, YZ You - arXiv preprint arXiv:2111.10369, 2021 - arxiv.org
Prior work [arXiv: 2106.16248] shows that the Standard Model (SM) naturally arises near a
gapless quantum critical region between Georgi-Glashow (GG) $ su (5) $ and Pati-Salam …

[图书][B] Noncommutative geometry and particle physics

WD Van Suijlekom - 2015 - Springer
The seeds of this book have been planted in the far east, where I wrote lecture notes for
international schools in Tianjin, China in 2007, and in Bangkok, Thailand in 2011. I then …

Electroweak flavour unification

J Davighi, J Tooby-Smith - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
A bstract We propose that the electroweak and flavour quantum numbers of the Standard
Model (SM) could be unified at high energies in an SU (4)× Sp (6) L× Sp (6) R anomaly-free …

Standard model physics from an algebra?

C Furey - arXiv preprint arXiv:1611.09182, 2016 - arxiv.org
This thesis constitutes a first attempt to derive aspects of standard model particle physics
from little more than an algebra. Here, we argue that physical concepts such as particles …

Small resolutions of SU (5)-models in F-theory

M Esole, ST Yau - 2013 - projecteuclid.org
We provide an explicit desingularization and study the resulting fiber geometry of elliptically
fibered four-folds defined by Weierstrass models admitting a split ̃A_4 singularity over a …

[HTML][HTML] Three generations, two unbroken gauge symmetries, and one eight-dimensional algebra

C Furey - Physics Letters B, 2018 - Elsevier
A considerable amount of the standard model's three-generation structure can be realised
from just the 8 C-dimensional algebra of the complex octonions. Indeed, it is a little-known …

Mordell-Weil torsion and the global structure of gauge groups in F-theory

C Mayrhofer, DR Morrison, O Till, T Weigand - Journal of High Energy …, 2014 - Springer
A bstract We study the global structure of the gauge group G of F-theory compactified on an
elliptic fibration Y. The global properties of G are encoded in the torsion subgroup of the …
