Abstract:

With linearly independent elements extracted from unitary 3 ×3 matrix representations Rep(S3) of the permutation group S3, a non-semisimple algebra \breveA and its associated Lie group \breveG(\breveA) are constructed for the purpose of describing flavor physics. While the group \breveG(\breveA) is isomorphic to the SU(2) ×U(1) group, the algebra \breveA has a unique, elaborate structure. A flavor-mixing matrix that is completely different from that of the conventional theory is expressed in terms of four group parameters of the Lie group in an essentially unique way. Adjusting the values of the group parameters of the flavor-mixing matrix for quark sector allows us to account for experimental results to high precision. In order to describe the mass matrices leading to hierarchical mass spectra, a minimal extension of the algebra \breveA is made by adding an additional element.
