Family Unification in a Six Dimensional Theory with an Orthogonal Gauge Group

We propose a simple model of family unification, which is a six dimensional $SO(20)$ gauge theory with a single fermion in the spinorial representation. After compactification to five dimensions, our model gives a five dimensional model where the Standard Model Higgs field is unified into the fifth component of the five dimensional gauge field as well as three generations of quarks and leptons are unified into a single spinor field.

Attempt at Constructing a Model of Grand Gauge-Higgs Unification with Family Unification

We discuss a possibility whether a model of grand gauge-Higgs unification incorporating family unification in higher dimensions can be constructed. We first extend a five dimensional $SU(6)$ grand gauge-Higgs unification model to a five dimensional $SU(7)$ grand gauge-Higgs unification model compactified on an orbifold $S^1/Z_2$ to obtain three generations of quarks and leptons after symmetrybreaking of the larger family unified gauge group. A prescription of constructing a six dimensional $SU(N)$ grand gauge-Higgs unification model including a five dimensional $SU(7)$ grand gauge-Higgs unification after compactifying the sixth dimension on an orbifold $S^1/Z_2$ is given. We find a six dimensional $SU(14)$ grand gauge-Higgs unification model with a set of representations containing three generations of quarks and leptons.

New Models of $SU(6)$ Grand Gauge-Higgs Unification

A five dimensional $SU(6)$ grand gauge-Higgs unification compactified on $S^1/Z_2$ is discussed. We propose new sets of the $SU(6)$ representations where the quarks and leptons in one generation are embedded and there is no extra massless exotic fermions absent in the Standard Model. The correct electroweak symmetry breaking pattern can be realized by introducing some adjoint fermions. We also analyze whether a viable Higgs mass can be obtained.
