Orbifold family unification inSO(2N)gauge theory

Abstract: We study the possibility of family unification on the basis of SO(2N ) gauge theory on themultiplets come from a single bulk multiplet of SO(2N ) after the orbifold breaking. Other multiplets including brane fields are necessary to compose three families of quarks and leptons.

“…On two-dimensional torus T 2 (without magnetic flux), not only the simplest Z 2 case, also more complicated twisted orbifolds T 2 /Z N for N = 3, 4, 6 can be constructed [47] and their geometrical aspects are discussed [51][52][53] within the context of string theory. In a higherdimensional field theory, detailed studies of SU(N ) and SO(N ) gauge theory have been carried out [54][55][56][57][58]. Furthermore on T 6 , which has much amount of degrees of freedom compared with T 2 , other complex patterns are possible like T 6 /Z 7 , T 6 /Z 8 , T 6 /Z 12 and so on.…”

“…There are some attempts to unify GUT and family groups into a larger GUT group in 4D and higher-dimensional theories [35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42]. However, such attempts are based on GUT groups and their limited subgroups so-called regular subgroups: e.g., E 8 ⊃ E 7 ⊃ E 6 ⊃ SO(10) ⊃ SU (5) ⊃ G SM (:= SU (3) C ×SU (2) L ×U (1) Y ).…”
