Dai-Freed anomaly in the standard model and topological inflation
Abstract When we impose discrete symmetries in the standard model we have Dai-Freed global anomalies. However, interestingly if we introduce three right-handed neutrinos we can have an anomaly-free discrete Z 4 gauge symmetry. This Z 4 symmetry should be spontaneously broken down to the Z 2 symmetry...
