Developments In 5D Quark-Lepton Symmetric Models
A. Coulthurst, A. Demaria, K. L. McDonald +1
We outline some recent developments in higher dimensional Quark-Lepton (QL) symmetric models. The QL symmetric model in five dimensions is discussed, with particular emphasis on th…
Quartification On An Orbifold
Alison Demaria, Kristian L. McDonald
We investigate quartification models in five dimensions, with the fifth dimension forming an orbifold. The orbifold construction is combined with a boundary Hi…
Neutrino masses in quartification schemes
Alison Demaria, Catherine I. Low, Raymond R. Volkas
The idea of quark-lepton universality at high energies has recently been explored in unified theories based upon the quartification gauge group SU(3)^4. These schemes encompass a q…
Kink-induced symmetry breaking patterns in brane-world SU(3)^3 trinification models
Alison Demaria, Raymond R. Volkas
The trinification grand unified theory (GUT) has gauge group SU(3)^3 and a discrete symmetry permuting the SU(3) factors. In common with other GUTs, the attractive nature of the fe…
