Hierarchies from Higher Flavor Spin

Abstract

We develop a framework in which Yukawa hierarchies arise from powers of fully anarchic spurions transforming in higher representations of the flavor symmetry group $SU(2)^{n_2}\times SU(3)^{n_3}$. The core mechanism is the progressive lifting of Yukawa ranks through successive outer products of composite doublets and triplets. We formulate the general construction in detail and build explicit models realizing it. We then investigate whether renormalizable scalar potentials for higher $SU(2)$ representations can dynamically generate anarchic spurions with non-vanishing composites. The framework predicts distinctive patterns in flavor-changing neutral currents and potentially observable stochastic gravitational-wave backgrounds.
