Dual Implications of Quark Mass Hierarchies to Flavor Structure

Abstract

To solve the mystery of flavor structure, we demonstrate two implications emerging from the hierarchical masses of quarks: one for the mass matrix itself and one for the CKM mixing. These implications naturally lead to a non-redundant, ordered, and family-unified quark flavor structure, which serves as a candidate to replace the unclear Yukawa interactions of the Standard Model.
