New Mixing Structures of Chiral Generations in a Model with Noncompact   Horizontal Symmetry
  New mixing structures between chiral generations of elementary particles at low energy are shown in a vectorlike model with a horizontal symmetry SU(1,1). In this framework the chiral model including odd number chiral generations is realized via the spontaneous symmetry breaking of the horizontal symmetry. It is shown that the Yukawa coupling matrices of chiral generations have naturally hierarchical patterns, and in some cases the overall factors of their Yukawa coupling matrices, e.g. the Yukawa coupling constants of the bottom quark and tau lepton are naturally suppressed.
