Complete CKM quark mixing via dimensional deconstruction Original Research Article

It is shown that the deconstruction of image into image is capable of providing all necessary ingredients to completely implement the complex CKM mixing of quark flavors. The hierarchical structure of quark masses originates from the difference in the deconstructed chiral zero-mode distributions in theory space, while the CP-violating phase comes from the genuinely complex vacuum expectation value of link fields. The mixing is constructed in a specific model to satisfy experimental bounds on quarksʹ masses and CP violation.
