Title:An Algebraic Roadmap of Particle Theories, Part I: General construction
View PDF HTML (experimental)Abstract:It is a curious fact that our most well-studied BSM theories can inform us about the Standard Model itself. Just over a decade ago, [1], Baez and Huerta explained how the Standard Model's gauge group can be seen to coincide with the intersection of Georgi and Glashow's SU(5), and Pati and Salam's $SU(4)\times SU(2)\times SU(2)$, inside Spin(10). More recently, [2], [3], it was shown how (up to a factor of B-L) the Spin(10) model, the Pati-Salam model, the Left-Right Symmetric model, the Standard Model pre-Higgs mechanism, and the Standard Model post-Higgs mechanism are interlinked via a sequence of division algebraic reflections. Between these three papers, [1], [2], [3], are six theories that have been studied extensively by particle physicists. In this article, we demonstrate how the full set of six familiar particle models may be laid out in one connected algebraic particle roadmap. The inclusion of a quaternionic reflection within the network further differentiates $W^{\pm}$ bosons from the $Z^0$ boson in comparison to the Standard Model. It may introduce subtle new considerations for the phenomenology of electroweak symmetry breaking.
