As an illustrative example, we employ such a formal construction for reproducing the standard model Lagrangian. This generalized formulation is supposed to contribute for initiating the study of gauge transformation applied to generalized $SU(n)_{U} \\otimes SU(m)_{V}$ symmetries as well as for complementing an introductory study of the standard model of elementary particles.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-11-29T11:50:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.30.-j" ], "keywords": [ "gauge invariant kinetic term", "gauge transformation", "standard model lagrangian", "gauge invariance", "kinetic part" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "International Journal of Theoretical Physics", "year": 2008, "month": "Apr", "volume": 47, "number": 4, "pages": 971 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 769068, "adsabs": "2008IJTP...47..971B" } } }
