Natural Inflation and Flavor Mixing from Peccei-Quinn Symmetry Breaking

arXiv:1011.4905 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2011.02.005

Abstract

We propose a left-right symmetric model to simultaneously give natural inflation and flavor mixing from a Peccei-Quinn symmetry breaking at the Planck scale. Our model can be embedded in SO(10) grand unification theories.
