57 Dynamical Yukawas

58 Yukawa couplings are the source of flavour in the SM ~" δl m = Q Y d H d + Q Y u H u + h.c." H YD QL DR H YU QL UR

59 Yukawa couplings are the source of flavour in the νsm H (i.e. Seesaw type-i) YE L ER H Yν L νr

60 May they correspond to dynamical fields (e.g. vev of fields that carry flavor)? Many attempts: discrete symmetries, continuous symmetries

61 Instead of inventing an ad-hoc symmetry group, why not use the continuous flavour group suggested by the SM itself?

62 We have realized that the different pattern for quarks versus leptons may be a simple consequence of the continuous flavour group of the SM (+ seesaw) (Alonso, Gavela, D.Hernandez, Merlo, Rigolin) 2013 (Alonso, Gavela, Isidori, Maiani)

63 We have realized that the different pattern for quarks versus leptons may be a simple consequence of the continuous flavour group of the SM (+ seesaw) Our guideline is to use: - maximal symmetry - minimal field content 2013 (Alonso, Gavela, D.Hernandez, Merlo, Rigolin) (Alonso, Gavela, Isidori, Maiani)

64 Global flavour symmetry of the SM * QCD has a global -chiral- symmetry in the limit of massless quarks. For n generations: fermions * In the SM, fermion masses and mixings result from Yukawa couplings. For massless quarks, the SM has a global flavour symmetry: Quarks fermions SM Gflavour [Georgi, Chivukula, 1987]

65 Global flavour symmetry of the SM * QCD has a global -chiral- symmetry in the limit of massless quarks. For n generations: fermions * In e.g., the for SM, n=3 fermion : u, d, s masses. The massless and mixings QCD result Lag. is from invariant Yukawa " couplings. interchanging:" For massless quarks, the SM has a global flavour symmetry: u L " u R " Quarks fermions SM s L " Gflavour d L " or" SU(3) L!

66 Global flavour symmetry of the SM * QCD has a global -chiral- symmetry in the limit of massless quarks.

84 Minimization a variational principle fixes the vevs of Fields" masses, mixing angles etc. This is an homogenous linear equation; if the rank of the Jacobian, Maximum: then the only solution is: is: Less than Maximum: then the number of equations reduces to a number equal to the rank

85 Boundaries for a reduced rank of the Jacobian, there exists (at least) a direction for which a variation of the field variables does not vary the invariants that is a Boundary of the I-manifold [Cabibbo, Maiani,1969] Boundaries Exhibit Unbroken Symmetry [Michel, Radicati, 1969] (maximal subgroups)

86 Boundaries Exhibit Unbroken Symmetry" Extra-dimensions Example" The smallest boundaries are extremal points of any function [Michel, Radicati, 1969]

92 Jacobian Analysis: Mixing the rank is reduced the most for: VCKM= PERMUTATION no mixing: reordering of states (Alonso, Gavela, Isidori, Maiani 2013)

93 Quark Natural Flavour Pattern Summarizing, a possible and natural breaking pattern arises: Gflavour (quarks) giving a hierarchical mass spectrum without mixing < YD > < YU > a good approximation to the observed Yukawas to order (λc) 2

94 And what happens for leptons? Any difference with Majorana neutrinos?

95 Leptons

96 Global flavour symmetry of the SM + seesaw * In the SM, for quarks the maximal global symmetry in the limit of massless quarks was: quarks SM Gflavour = * In SM +type I seesaw, for leptons: the maximal leptonic global symmetry in the limit of massless light leptons is -> degenerate heavy neutrinos

97 There are n=3 lepton families. With null Yukawa couplings,! the maximal symmetry of the Lag. is SU(3) L x SU(3) ER x O(3) NR " L = " ν el " e L " ν μl " μ L " ν τl " τ L " L 1 " e R " L 3 " SU(3) L! L 2 " Ν R1 " τ R " SU(3) ΕR! Gflavour μ R " or" Ν R3 " Ο(3) NR! Ν R2 "

98 Ilustration: 2 families (Casas-Ibarra parametrization) for 2 generations, the mixing terms in V(YE, Yν) is : Leptons" Tr(YE YE + Yν Yν + ) Casas-Ibarra variable in R where UPMNS= cosθ sinθ -sinθ cosθ e -iα 0 0 e iα Quarks" Tr(Yu Yu + Yd Yd + )

99 e.g., for 2 generations, the mixing terms in V(YE, Yν) is : Leptons Tr(YE YE + Yν Yν + ) This mixing term unphysical if either up or down fermions degenerate Quarks Tr(Yu Yu + Yd Yd + ) Mixing physical even with degenerate neutrino masses, if Majorana phase non-trivial

100 e.g. for the case of two families: Tr(Yu Yu + Yd Yd + ) at the minimum: V -> NO MIXING mq θ same conclusion for 3 families Berezhiani-Rossi; Anselm, Berezhiani; Alonso, Gavela, Merlo, Rigolin!

101 e.g., for 2 generations, the mixing terms in V(YE, Yν) is : Minimisation (for non trivial sin2ω) Tr(YE YE + Yν Yν + ) * sin2ω α= π/4 or 3π/4 * tgh 2ω Maximal Majorana phase Large angles correlated with degenerate masses

102 * For instance for two generations: O(2)NR e.g. two families mν ~Yν v 2 Yν Τ = y1 y2 v 2 M M UPMNS = e iπ/4 0 0 e -iπ/4 " " " " Degenerate neutrino masses" Generically, O(2) allows : - one mixing angle maximal - one relative Majorana phase of π/2 - two degenerate light neutrinos

103 Now for three generations and considering all possible independent invariants

110 Jacobian

111 Jacobian Analysis: Mixing same as for VCKM O(3) vs U(3)

112 Jacobian Analysis: Mixing...which is now not trivial mixing......in fact it allows maximal mixing:

113 Jacobian Analysis: Mixing...which is now not trivial mixing... -"...in fact it allows maximal mixing: mν2=mν3 and maximal Majorana phase

114 Jacobian Analysis: Mixing...which is now not trivial mixing... -"...in fact it leads to one maximal mixing angle: θ23 =45 o ; Majorana Phase Pattern (-i,-i,1) & at this level mass degeneracy: mν2 = mν3 related to the O(2) substructure [Alonso, Gavela, D. Hernández, L. Merlo; [Alonso, Gavela, D. Hernández, L. Merlo, S. Rigolin]

115 If the three neutrinos are quasidegenerate, perturbations: -" This very simple structure is signaled by the extrema of the potential and has eigenvalues (1,1,-1) 3 degenerate light neutrinos + a maximal Majorana phase and is diagonalized by a maximal θ = 45º

116 With hierarchical charged leptons, always (either two or three" neutrinos degenerate), the symmetry pattern at this stage is" SU(3) L x SU(3) E x O(3) N! SU(2) E x U(1) diag "

117 Generalization to any seesaw model the effective Weinberg Operator C d=5 shall have a flavour structure that breaks U(3)L to O(3) v 2 C d=5 = -" mν then the results apply to any seesaw model

118 First conclusion: * at the same order in which the minimum of the potential does NOT allow quark mixing, it allows: - hierarchical charged leptons - quasi-degenerate neutrino masses - one angle of ~45 degrees - one maximal Majorana phase

119 The conclusions hold irrespective of the!! renormalizability of the potential,!! and are thus stable under radiative corrections!!

120 Perturbations can produce a second large angle if the three neutrinos are quasidegenerate, perturbations: -" produce a second large angle and a perturbative one together with mass splittings"

127 Where do the differences in Mixing originated? in the symmetries of the Quark and Lepton sectors for the type I seesaw employed here;

128 Where do the differences in Mixing originated? in the symmetries of the Quark and Lepton sectors for the type I seesaw employed here; in general

129 Where do the differences in Mixing originated? From the MAJORANA vs DIRAC nature of fermions

130 Conclusions Spontaneous Flavour Symmetry Breaking is a predictive dynamical scenario Simple solutions arise that resemble nature in first approximation The differences in the mixing pattern of Quarks and Leptons arise from their Dirac vs Majorana nature (U vs. O symmetries). O(2) singled out -> O(3). A correlation between large angles and degenerate spectrum emerges. Explicitly, for neutrinos we find: one maximal Majorana phases (α,1,i), θ23 =45 o, θ12 large, θ13 small and deg. ν s This scenario will be tested in the near future by 0ν2β experiments (~.1eV)... or cosmology!!!

131

132 We set the perturbations by hand. Can we predict them also dynamically? Fundamental Fields May provide dynamically the perturbations In the case of quarks they can give the right corrections: [Alonso, Gavela, Merlo, Rigolin] under study in the lepton sector

145 * What is the role of the neutrino flavour group? To analyze this in general, use common parametrization for quarks and leptons: Y = UL y diag. UR * Quarks, for instance: UR unphysical, UL --> UCKM YD = UCKM diag(yd, ys, yb) ; YU = diag(yu, yc, yt) * Leptons: YE = diag(ye, yµ, yτ) ; Yν = UL y diag. UR UPMNS diagonalize mν ~Yν v 2 Yν Τ = M UL yν diag. UR v 2 UR T yν diag. UL T M

146 * What is the role of the neutrino flavour group? U(n)

147 * What is the role of the neutrino flavour group? U(n) i.e.: U(3)L x U(3)ER x U(2)NR or: U(3)L x U(3)ER x U(3)NR

148 * What is the role of the neutrino flavour group? e.g. generic seesaw e.g. U(n)NR... leptons M with M carrying flavour M spurion More invariants in this case: Tr ( YE YE + ) Tr ( YE YE + ) 2 Tr ( YE YE + Yν Yν + ) Tr ( Yν Yν + ) Tr ( Yν Yν + ) 2 Tr ( MN MN + ) Tr ( MN MN + ) 2 Tr ( MN MN + Yν + Yν ) Result: no mixing for flavour groups U(n)

149 SU(n)

150 * What is the role of the neutrino flavour group? e.g. generic seesaw e.g. SU(n)NR... leptons M with M carrying flavour M spurion More invariants in this case: Tr ( YE YE + ) Tr ( YE YE + ) 2 Tr ( YE YE + Yν Yν + ) Tr ( Yν Yν + ) Tr ( Yν Yν + ) 2 Tr ( MN MN + ) Tr ( MN MN + ) 2 Tr ( MN MN + Yν + Yν) At the minimum: * Tr ( Yν Yν + YΕ YΕ + ) = Tr ( UL yν diag. 2 UL + yl diag. 2 ) UL=1 * Tr ( MN MN + Yν Yν + ) = Tr ( UR yν diag. 2 UR + Mi diag. 2 ) UR=1

159 For instance, in discrete symmetry ideas: The Yukawas are indeed explained in terms of dynamical fields. And they do not need to worry about goldstone bosons. In spite of θ13 not very small, there is activity. For instance, combine generalized CP (Bernabeu, Branco, Gronau 80s) with discrete Z2 groups in the neutrino sector : maximal θ23, strong constraints on values of CP phases (Feruglio, Hagedorn and Ziegler 2013; Holthausen, Lindner and Schmidt 2013) They were popular mainly because they can lead easily to large mixings (tribimaximal, bimaximal...) But: - Discrete approaches do not relate mixing to spectrum - Difficulties to consider both quarks and leptons

160 Some good ideas: H Ψ σπυριον Minimal Flavour Violation: QL DR - Use the flavour symmetry of the SM in the limit of massless (Chivukula+ Georgi) fermions quarks: Gflavour= U(3)QL x U(3)UR x U(3)DR Hybrid dynamical-non-dynamical Yukawas: U(2) (Pomarol, Tomasini; Barbieri, Dvali, Hall, Romanino...)... U(2) 3 (Craig, Green, Katz; Barbieri, Isidori, Jones-Peres, Lodone, Straub....Sala) U(2) Sequential ideas (Feldman, Jung, Mannel; Berezhiani+Nesti; Ferretti et al., Calibbi et al....)

161 Some good ideas, based on continuous symmetries: H φ s Frogatt-Nielsen 79: U(1)flavour symmetry QL DR - Yukawa couplings are effective couplings, - Fermions have U(1)flavour charges < φ > n Q H qr, Y ~ < φ > n n Λ Λ e.g. n=0 for the top, n large for light quarks, etc. --> FCNC?

162 The FLAVOUR WALL for BSM i) Typically, BSMs have electric dipole moments at one loop i.e susy MSSM: < 1 loop in SM ---> Best (precision) window of new physics ii) FCNC i.e susy MSSM: competing with SM at one-loop

163 Minimal Flavour violation (MFV) Flavour data (i.e. B physics) consistent with all flavour physics coming from Yukawa in BSM It is very predictive for quarks: L= L SM + c d=6 O d=6 + known function of Yukawas 2 Λ flavour (D Ambrosio, Cirigliano, Isidori, Grinstein, Wise.Buras.)
