Gauge hierarchies for chiral SU(N) cross SU(N) groups

Description

We have presented a special case where a hierarchy of spontaneous breaking of the symmetries can be achieved in conventional gauge theories (i.e. the Higgs scalars are elementary bosons and the coupling constants of the quartic interactions are small). We break spontaneously the chiral group SU(N) x SU(N) with Higgs scalars transforming like the (N,N) representation of SU(N) x SU(N). (author)
