Exact One-Loop Evolution Invariants in the Standard Model

Abstract

Guided by considerations of flavour symmetry, we construct a set of exact Standard Model (SM) renormalisation group evolution invariants which link quark masses and mixing parameters. We examine their phenomenological implications and infer a simple combination of Yukawa coupling matrices which plays a unique role in the SM, suggesting a possible new insight into the observed spectrum of quark masses. Our evolution invariants are readily generalised to the leptons in the case of Dirac neutrinos, but do not appear to be relevant for either quarks or leptons in the MSSM.
