An SO(10) GUT Model with $S4$ Flavor Symmetry

Abstract

We present a supersymmetric grand unification model based on SO(10) group with $S4$ flavor symmetry. In this model, the fermion masses are from Yukawa couplings involving $\bf{10}$ and $\bar{\bf{126}}$ Higgs multiplets and the flavor structures of mass matrices of both quarks and leptons are determined by spontaneously broken $S4$. This model fits all of the masses and mixing angles of the quarks and leptons. For the most general CP-violation scenario, this model gives $\sin\theta_{13}$ a wide range of values from zero to the current bound with the most probable values $0.02-0.09$. With certain assumptions where leptonic phases have same CP-violation source as CKM phase, one gets a narrower range $0.03-0.09$ for $\sin\theta_{13}$ with the most probable values $0.04-0.08$. This model gives leptonic Dirac CP phase the most probable values 2-4 radians in the general CP-violation case.
