Chiral Fermions and AdS/CFT Duality for a Nonabelian Orbifold
Paul H. Frampton, T. W. Kephart
We present what we believe is the minimal three-family model compactified on a nonabelian orbifold . Nontrivial irreps of the discrete nonabelian g…
Nonabelian Discrete Symmetries, Fermion Mass Textures and Large Neutrino Mixing
Paul H. Frampton, Andrija Rasin
Nonabelian discrete groups are an attractive tool to describe fermion masses and mixings. They have nonsinglet representations which seem particularly suitable for distinguishing t…
Conformality and Brodsky
Paul H. Frampton
In this article I describe the recently-conjectured field-string duality which suggests a class of nonsupersymmetric gauge theories which are conformal (CGT) to leading order of 1/…
Application of Conformal Gauge Theories Derived from Field-String Duality
P. H. Frampton
In this article I first give an abbreviated history of string theory and then describe the recently-conjectured field-string duality. This suggests a class of nonsupersymmetric gau…
Conformality from Field-String Duality on Abelian Orbifolds
Paul H. Frampton
If the standard model is embedded in a conformal theory, what is the simplest possibility? We analyse all abelian orbifolds for discrete symmetry with , and find th…
Can the Zee ansatz for neutrino masses be correct?
Paul H. Frampton, Sheldon L. Glashow
Working in the framework of three chiral neutrinos with Majorana masses, we investigate a scenario first realized in an explicit model by Zee: that the neutrino mass matrix is stri…
Conformality and Gauge Coupling Unification
Paul H. Frampton
It has been recently proposed to embed the standard model in a conformal gauge theory to resolve the hierarchy problem, and to avoid assuming either grand unification or low-energy…
Mersenne Primes, Polygonal Anomalies and String Theory Classification
Paul H. Frampton, Thomas W. Kephart
It is pointed out that the Mersenne primes and associated perfect numbers play a significant role in string theory; this observation may sugge…
Conformal Approach to Particle Phenomenology
P. H. Frampton, C. Vafa
We propose the existence of a non-supersymmetric conformal field theory softly broken at the TeV scale as a new mechanism for solving the hierarchy problem. We find the imposition…
Conformal N=0 d=4 Gauge Theories from AdS/CFT Superstring Duality?
Paul H. Frampton, William F. Shively
Non-supersymmetric d=4 gauge theories which arise from superstring duality on a manifold are cataloged for a range . A number have vanishin…
Unification with Enlarged Kaluza-Klein Dimensions
Paul H. Frampton, Andrija Rasin
In minimal theories with extra spatial dimensions at scales mu_0 much lower than the conventional GUT scale, unification can give too-large predictions for alpha_3(M_Z) given alpha…
Quarks and Leptons Beyond the Third Generation
Paul H. Frampton, P. Q. Hung, Marc Sher
The possibility of additional quarks and leptons beyond the three generations already established is discussed. The make-up of this Report is (I) Introduction: the motivations for…
Is the Cosmological Constant Non-Zero?
P. H. Frampton
There is a discussion of the temperature anisotropy of the cosmic background radiation and of how the first Doppler peak depends on the different contributions to the vacuum energy…
