Dark matter in E6 Grand unification

Abstract: We discuss fermionic dark matter in non-supersymmetric E 6 Grand Unification. The fundamental representation of E 6 contains, in addition to the standard model fermions, exotic fermions and we argue that one of them is a viable, interesting dark matter candidate. Its stability is guaranteed by a discrete remnant symmetry, which is an unbroken subgroup of the E 6 gauge symmetry. We compute the symmetry breaking scales and the effect of possible threshold corrections by solving the renormalization group equation… Show more

“…While E 6 and exceptional Jordan algebras are found in these models, these seem to differ from various approaches, such as E 6 GUT [32,33,140] and recent attempts to connect J 3,O to the standard model [137][138][139][177][178][179]. Instead, we find the Peirce decomposition to give bosons and fermions, rather than only fermions 3 .…”

“…The flipped SO(10) GUT uses the algebra so 10 ⊕ u 1 [135,136]. The flipped so 10 GUT uses the entire 27 for describing fermions, which is similar to other work in this manner [137][138][139][140]. We rule out the possibility with e 8(−24) , as only 16 of the 27 degrees of freedom are fermionic, which will become more clear below.…”

“…Since it can provide Dynkin indices of irreps it is useful in obtaining renormalization group equations [20,21,22]. In model building it has been used for extensions of the Standard Model in the way of BSM models [23,24,25,26,27,28,29], grand unified models [30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43], and other applications including SUSY models [44,45,46], supergravity models [47] and general particle physics models [48,49]. In UV completions of particle physics models, LieART has found uses in string theory [50,51], holography [52,53,54], (super-)conformal field theory [55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63], M-theory [64,65] and F-theory [66,…”

“…The anomaly cancellation can be highly non-trivial and for this reason it is theoretically interesting to consider gauge groups that are generation-independent such as the U (1) d−u group that arises after spontaneous symmetry breaking in some E 6 constructions [63]. The E 6 symmetry is theoretically motivated because it offers a hospital environment for unification of forces and incorporates interesting features of SU (5) or SO (10) groups concerning the generation of fermion masses and flavor symmetries [68][69][70][71][72][73][74], super heavy dark matter [75], and collider physics [72].…”
