can be<br />
chosen differently, which is suppressed <strong>in</strong> (2.4). This difference is only due to <strong>the</strong> fact,<br />
that <strong>the</strong> Higgs is a brane localized 4D field. We will <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g assume, that<br />
Y (5D)<br />
q<br />

q , which can be motivated by consider<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> model result<strong>in</strong>g as a limit<br />
of a <strong>the</strong>ory with a bulk scalar, <strong>in</strong> which <strong>the</strong> coupl<strong>in</strong>gs would be <strong>the</strong> same, because<br />
<strong>the</strong> bulk must respect 5D Lorentz <strong>in</strong>variance. Even without <strong>in</strong>troduc<strong>in</strong>g this limit,<br />
this assumption should not affect <strong>the</strong> physics, because we expect <strong>the</strong> 5D Yukawas to<br />
be structureless order one coefficients anyway with no effect on <strong>the</strong> hierarchies <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
flavor sector, so that even be<strong>in</strong>g more restrictive, for example choos<strong>in</strong>g Y (5D)<br />

d<br />
should not change <strong>the</strong> results.<br />
Fur<strong>the</strong>r, <strong>the</strong> real bulk mass matrices M Q,q and <strong>the</strong> complex 5D Yukawa matrices will<br />
not be diagonal <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> same basis. If not stated o<strong>the</strong>rwise, we will from now on assume<br />
that we are <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> bulk mass basis, <strong>in</strong> which <strong>the</strong> bulk mass matrices are diagonal. Due<br />
to <strong>the</strong> flavor degrees of freedom and <strong>the</strong> Higgs on <strong>the</strong> brane, The KK decomposition<br />
is more <strong>in</strong>volved than <strong>in</strong> (2.115). It can be brought <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> form<br />
uL(xµ, t) = 1 √ r<br />
uR(xµ, t) = 1 √ r<br />
u c L(xµ, t) = 1 √ r<br />

where <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>dex n runs over all flavor and KK modes. So will for example m1 =<br />
mu, m2 = mc, m3 = mt give <strong>the</strong> SM quark masses, and m4, . . . , m9 <strong>the</strong> masses of<br />
<strong>the</strong> first set of six KK modes, and likewise for downtype quarks. The 3 × 3 matrices<br />

n (t) correspond to <strong>the</strong> solutions with (DD) BCs which do not acquire a zero mode,<br />
while C Q,q<br />
n (t) denote profiles with (NN) BCs that have a zero mode. The additional<br />
a-vectors a (U,u)<br />

quantify flavor mix<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>duced by <strong>the</strong> Yukawa coupl<strong>in</strong>gs. Therefore,
