Abstract

The family replication problem is addressed in the context of the dual standard model. The breaking of a simple grand unified group to (G_low×H₁×H₂×H₃)/Z³₅, and then further to G_low, produces a spectrum of stable monopoles that falls into three families, each of whose magnetic quantum numbers correspond to the electric charges on the fermions of the standard model. HereG_low = [SU(3)×SU(2)×U(1)]/Z₆ is the symmetry group of the standard model above the weak scale, and H_i are simple Lie groups which each have aZ₅ symmetry in common with G_low.
