Research Abstract

This project aims to build Unified Theories of Elementary Particles which are expected to exist beyond the Standard Model, taking the sharp contrast of hierarchical generation mixing structures between quarks and leptons as its important clue.(1) The members of this project have individually produced their own good results.(2) They also successfully organized Summer Institute once a year which provided the researchers in this area in Japan as well as in East Asia with chances to make fruitful collaborations.
