1306.2668 (Don Bennett et al.)

Seeking a Game in which the standard model Group shall Win    [PDF]

Don Bennett, Holger Bech Nielsen
It is attempted to construct a group-dependent quantity that could be used to single out the Standard Model group S(U(2) x U(3)) as being the "winner" by this quantity being the biggest possible for just the Standard Model group. The suggested quantity is first of all based on the inverse quadratic Cassimir for the fundamental or better smallest faithful representation in a notation in which the adjoint representation quadratic Cassimir is normalized to unity. Then a further correction is added to help the wanted Standard Model group to win and the rule comes even to involve the Abelian group U(1) to be multiplied into the group to get this correction be allowed. The scheme is suggestively explained to have some physical interpretation(s). By some appropriate proceedure for extending the group dependent quantity to groups that are not simple we find a way to make the Standard Model Group the absolute "winner". Thus we provide an indication for what could be the reason for the Standard Model Group having been chosen to be the realized one by Nature.
