Abstract

I construct a renormalizable SU(2)89× U(1) gauge theory with standard-model-like phenomenology for the gauge bosons masses and the weak interactions of the light fermions (including the b) but in which all vacuum expectation values are about 2 TeV. This is a deconstructed version of a Higgsless model with a flat extra dimension. The fermions are delocalized on the theory space in an unusual way, with LH and RD fermions on alternate nodes.
