We propose a model that explains the fermion mass hierarchy by the Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism with a discrete $Z_N^F$ symmetry. As a concrete model, we study a supersymmetric model with a single flavon coupled to the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. Flavon develops a TeV scale vacuum expectation value for realizing flavor hierarchy, an appropriate $mu$-term and the electroweak scale, hence the model has a low cutoff scale. We demonstrate how the flavon is successfully stabilized together with the Higgs bosons in the model. The discrete flavor symmetry $Z_N^F$ controls not only the Standard Model fermion masses, but also the Higgs potential and a mass of the Higgsino which is a good candidate for dark matter. The hierarchy in the Higgs-flavon sector is determined in order to make the model anomaly-free and realize a stable electroweak vacuum. We show that this model can explain the fermion mass hierarchy, realistic Higgs-flavon potential and thermally produced dark matter at the same time. We discuss flavor violating processes induced by the light flavon which would be detected in future experiments.

We propose a simple model with the Z_N symmetry in order to answer whether the symmetry is a good concept in QCD with light quark mass. The model is constructed by imposing the flavor-dependent twisted boundary condition (TBC) on the three-flavor Pol yakov-loop extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. In the model, the Z_N symmetry is preserved below some temperature T_c, but spontaneously broken above T_c. Dynamics of the simple model is similar to that of the original PNJL model without the TBC, indicating that the Z_N symmetry is a good concept. We also investigate the interplay between the Z_N symmetry and the emergence of the quarkyonic phase.
We propose a simple mechanism for stabilizing flavon fields with aligned vacuum structure in models with discrete flavor symmetry. The basic idea is that flavons are stabilized by the balance between the negative soft mass and non-renormalizable term s in the potential. We explicitly discuss how our mechanism works in $A_4$ flavor model, and show that the field content is significantly simplified. It also works as a natural solution to the cosmological domain wall problem.
We propose a low scale renormalizable left-right symmetric theory that successfully explains the observed SM fermion mass hierarchy, the tiny values for the light active neutrino masses, the lepton and baryon asymmetries of the Universe, as well as t he muon and electron anomalous magnetic moments. In the proposed model the top and exotic quarks obtain masses at tree level, whereas the masses of the bottom, charm and strange quarks, tau and muon leptons are generated from a tree level Universal Seesaw mechanism, thanks to their mixings with the charged exotic vector like fermions. The masses for the first generation SM charged fermions arise from a radiative seesaw mechanism at one loop level, mediated by charged vector like fermions and electrically neutral scalars. The light active neutrino masses are produced from a one-loop level inverse seesaw mechanism. Our model is also consistent with the experimental constraints arising from the Higgs diphoton decay rate. We also discuss the $Z^prime$ and heavy scalar production at a proton-proton collider.
We construct a low-scale seesaw model to generate the masses of active neutrinos based on $S_4$ flavor symmetry supplemented by the $Z_2 times Z_3 times Z_4 times Z_{14}times U(1)_L$ group, capable of reproducing the low energy Standard model (SM) fe rmion flavor data. The masses of the SM fermions and the fermionic mixings parameters are generated from a Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism after the spontaneous breaking of the $S_4times Z_2 times Z_3 times Z_4 times Z_{14}times U(1)_L$ group. The obtained values for the physical observables of the quark and lepton sectors are in good agreement with the most recent experimental data. The leptonic Dirac CP violating phase $de _{CP}$ is predicted to be $259.579^circ$ and the predictions for the absolute neutrino masses in the model can also saturate the recent constraints.
We construct a supersymmetric $S_4$ flavor symmetry model with one of the trimaximal neutrino mixing patterns, the so-called TM$_1$, by using the novel way to stabilize flavons, which we proposed recently. The flavons are assumed to have tachyonic su persymmetry breaking mass terms and stabilized by higher-dimensional terms in the potential. We can obtain the desired alignment structure of the flavon vacuum expectation values to realize neutrino masses and mixings consistent with the current observations. This mechanism naturally avoids the appearance of dangerous cosmological domain walls.
