Electroweak quark-lepton symmetry and weak topological-charge confinement in the Standard Model with Dirac neutrinos
Ernesto A. Matute
The standard electroweak model with Dirac neutrinos is extended by way of the principles of electroweak quark-lepton symmetry and weak topological-charge confinement to account for…
Unification of standard and exotic matter through a symmetry
Ernesto A. Matute
We consider a scenario in which the discrete weak symmetry between quarks and leptons is extended to the weak force by introducing exotic partners. We conjecture that there exists…
Topological Charges, Prequarks and Presymmetry: a Topological Approach to Quark Fractional Charges
Ernesto A. Matute
A topological approach to quark fractional charges, based on charge constraints unexplained by the Standard Model of particle physics, is discussed. Charge fractionalization is rel…
A topological view on baryon number conservation
Ernesto A. Matute
We argue that the charge fractionalization in quarks has a hidden topological character related to a broken symmetry between integer-charged bare quarks and leptons. T…
