The model accommodates the observed fermion masses and mixings and yields a characteristic, successful relation among them. The Peccei-Quinn symmetry is an essential ingredient.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-05-21T13:42:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "family symmetry", "peccei-quinn symmetry", "simple charge assignments", "fermion masses", "model accommodates" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
