S3 symmetry and the quark mixing matrix

We impose an S3 symmetry on the quark fields under which two of three quarks transform like a doublet and the remaining one as singlet, and use a scalar sector with the same structure of SU(2) doublets. After gauge symmetry breaking, a Z2 subgroup of the S3 remains unbroken. We show that this unbrok...
