Maximal Abelian Flavor Symmetries
Juanca Carrasco-Martinez, Lawrence J. Hall
A framework, MAFS, is introduced that provides an approximate description of the hierarchies of quark and lepton masses and mixing angles in terms of a set of small parameters, $ε_…
On the quantum mechanics of finite-mass observers
Juanca Carrasco-Martinez
The principle of relativity is extended to accommodate finite-mass observers with quantum properties by introducing two operational requirements: (i) equivalence of observers at th…
A Flavor of SO(10) Unification with a Spinor Higgs
Juanca Carrasco-Martinez, Lawrence J. Hall, Keisuke Harigaya +1
We investigate Higgs Parity Unification-a realization of grand unification based on the Higgs Parity mechanism in which the Standard Model (SM) Higgs resides in a spinor r…
On the measurements in Quantum Gravity
Juanca Carrasco-Martinez
In this essay, we argue that certain aspects of the measurement require revision in Quantum Gravity. Using entropic arguments, we propose that the number of measurement outcomes an…
Leptogenesis in Parity Solutions to the Strong CP Problem and Standard Model Parameters
Juanca Carrasco-Martinez, David I. Dunsky, Lawrence J. Hall +1
We study the simplest theories with exact spacetime parity that solve the strong CP problem and successfully generate the cosmological baryon asymmetry via decays of right-handed n…
