The Spectrum of the 4-Generation Dirac-Kaehler Extension of the SM

Abstract

We compute the mass spectrum of the fermionic sector of the Dirac-Kaehler extension of the SM (DK-SM) by showing that there exists a Bogoliubov transformation that transforms the DK-SM into a flavor U(4) extension of the SM (SM-4) with a particular choice of masses and mixing textures. Mass relations of the model allow determination of masses of the 4th generation. Tree level prediction for the mass of the 4th charged lepton is 370 GeV. The model selects the normal hierarchy for neutrino masses and reproduces naturally the near tri-bimaximal and quark mixing textures. The electron neutrino and the 4th neutrino masses are related via a see-saw-like mechanism.
