Figure 3.9: In QCD, <strong>the</strong> global SU(3)V symmetry leads to an octet of vector mesons,<br />

and a s<strong>in</strong>glet correspond<strong>in</strong>g to <strong>the</strong> U(1)B. In <strong>the</strong> same way, vector mesons of a<br />

strongly coupled extension of <strong>the</strong> SM could be realized which correspond to a global<br />

SU(3)D × SU(3)S and <strong>the</strong>refore do not lead to excessive contributions to ɛK.<br />

3.6 The Extension of <strong>the</strong> Scalar Sector<br />

In order to implement Yukawa coupl<strong>in</strong>gs on <strong>the</strong> IR brane, <strong>the</strong> Higgs sector of <strong>the</strong><br />

extended RS model has to <strong>in</strong>clude color charged scalars, which saturate <strong>the</strong> quantum<br />

numbers of <strong>the</strong> bulk quarks under SU(3)D × SU(3)S<br />

Q ∼ (3, 1) , q c ∼ (1, 3) . (3.72)<br />

The same fields will also contribute to <strong>the</strong> axigluon KK masses by <strong>in</strong>duc<strong>in</strong>g IR BCs<br />

once <strong>the</strong>y take on <strong>the</strong>ir vev. The most m<strong>in</strong>imal extension of <strong>the</strong> scalar sector that<br />

allows for gauge <strong>in</strong>variant Yukawa coupl<strong>in</strong>gs is to <strong>in</strong>troduce an electroweak s<strong>in</strong>glet with<br />

hypercharge Y = 0, but transform<strong>in</strong>g as a bitriplet under SU(3)D × SU(3)S. This<br />

is analogue to <strong>the</strong> most popular extension of <strong>the</strong> scalar sector <strong>in</strong> four dimensional<br />

implementations of chiral color models [194]. In addition to <strong>the</strong> SM Higgs Lagrangian<br />

on <strong>the</strong> IR brane and <strong>the</strong> Yukawa coupl<strong>in</strong>gs (3.59), this <strong>in</strong>troduces <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g terms,<br />

Here, <strong>the</strong> trace is taken over <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>dices of <strong>the</strong> SU(3)D × SU(3)S generators, which<br />

by a slight abuse of language will collectively be called color <strong>in</strong>dices hereafter. The<br />

potential V (S, H) is given <strong>in</strong> Appendix D because it is not important for <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g<br />

discussion. It is a priori not necessary to conf<strong>in</strong>e S to <strong>the</strong> IR brane, but it would lead<br />

to chiral color break<strong>in</strong>g by a bulk mass <strong>in</strong>stead of a BC if it was a bulk field, which<br />

would change <strong>the</strong> analysis <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Sections 3.4 and 3.5 considerably, because a broken<br />

gauge symmetry <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> bulk will not correspond to a global symmetry <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> dual<br />

<strong>the</strong>ory. We will <strong>the</strong>refore always assume <strong>the</strong> whole scalar sector to be localized on <strong>the</strong><br />

IR brane.<br />
