Fig. 1: The diagram that generates the “$`ϵ`$” entries of the quark and lepton mass matrices.

Fig. 2: The diagram that generates the “$`\sigma `$” entries of the mass matrices $`L`$ and $`D`$.

Fig. 3: The diagrams that produce small masses for the first-family quarks and leptons. The family index $`j`$ on the spinor field takes the values 2 or 3, giving, respectively, the $`\delta `$ and $`\delta ^{}`$ terms of the mass matrices. Different $`SO(10)`$ vector Higgs, denoted with superscript $`j`$, are exchanged in the two cases.

Fig. 4 A comparison of the model with experiment for the Wolfenstein parameters ($`\rho `$, $`\eta `$). The axes are $`\rho `$ and $`\eta `$ multiplied by the central value of $`\left|s_{12}V_{cb}\right|`$. The central values allowed by the model lie on the bold dashed circular arc, cf. Eq. (6). The constraints following from $`|V_{ub}|,B`$-mixing and $`ϵ`$ extractions from experimental data are shown in the lightly shaded regions. The experimentally allowed region is indicated by the heavily shaded central region. A typical unitarity triangle allowed by both data and the model is shown.
