Description

Family symmetries of leptons and quarks are expressions of specific discrete rotational subgroups of the Standard Model gauge group. Their discrete symmetry properties include elliptic modular functions and the invariant J from which one predicts mass ratios, without any need for a Higgs. The family hierarchies, the origin of baryon number, and exact color symmetry are explained. The geometric properties dictate 3 lepton families and 4 quark families and the unique unification of the fundamental interactions in 4-D spacetime as well as in 10-D spacetime with the discrete group Weyl E8 x Weyl E8. The 4th quark family predicted masses are: b' quark state at ~80 GeV and t' quark at ~2600 GeV!
