String Background

Non-Abelian strings are considered in non-supersymmetric theories with fermions in various appropriate representations of the gauge group U[Formula: see text]. We derive the electric charge quantization conditions and the index theorems counting fermion zero modes in the string background both for the left-handed and right-handed fermions. In both cases we observe a non-trivial [Formula: see text] dependence.

The Standard Model

Connes' gauge theory on M4 × Z2 is reformulated in the Lagrangian level. It is pointed out that the field strength in Connes' gauge theory is not unique. We explicitly construct a field strength different from Connes' and prove that our definition leads to the generation-number independent Higgs potential. It is also shown that the nonuniqueness is related to the assumption that two different extensions of the differential geometry are possible when the extra one-form basis χ is introduced to define the differential geometry on M4 × Z2. Our reformulation is applied to the standard model based on Connes' color-flavor algebra. A connection between the unimodularity condition and the electric charge quantization is then discussed in the presence or absence of νR.

Charge Quantization

We obtain electric charge quantization in the context of models based on the gauge symmetry group SU (3)c ⊗ U (4)L ⊗U(1)X. The gauge models study include three families to cancel out anomalies and a set of scalar fields to break the symmetry spontaneously. To show the electric charge quantization, we use classical symmetry conditions and quantum chiral anomaly conditions.
