Universal Seesaw and $0νββ$ in new 3331 left-right symmetric model (1701.08675v2)

Abstract: We consider a class of left-right symmetric model with enlarged gauge group $SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R \times U(1)_X$ without having scalar bitriplet. In the absence of scalar bitriplet, there is no Dirac mass term for fermions including usual quarks and leptons. We introduce new isosinglet vector-like fermions so that all the fermions get their masses through a universal seesaw mechanism. We extend our discussion to neutrino mass and its implications in neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$). We show that for TeV scale $SU(3)_R$ gauge bosons, the heavy-light neutrino mixing contributes dominantly to $0\nu\beta\beta$ that can be observed at ongoing experiments. Towards the end we also comment on different possible symmetry breaking patterns of this enlarged gauge symmetry to that of the standard model.
