Description

An extra-dimensional extension of the standard model is presented. It displays a flavor $A_4$ symmetry among the three generations of fermions at the high energy regime. The model offers a symmetrical origin to quark and lepton mixings in a unified framework. The neutrino masses in the model emerge at one loop in a scotogenic fashion. The minimalist set up of the model is highly predictive and includes a dark sector whose lightest particle can be identified as a dark matter candidate.
