DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Cole Coughlin (Perimeter Institute for Theoretical P
 hysics)\n\nIn this episode\, we continue our exploration of Lie Groups and
  weight diagrams of their representations as a means of understanding the 
 very specific field content and Gauge Groups of the Standard Model. Previo
 usly we presented a novel perspective of the Electroweak sector of the Sta
 ndard Model as a shadow of 3 dimensional polytopes\, which correspond to r
 epresentations of a rank 3 group\, and who's shadow corresponds to a speci
 fic embedding of the Electroweak Gauge Group. While interesting\, we highl
 ighted the theories inability to include colour as a simple extension\, wh
 ich motivated our search for higher rank unifying groups. Today\, we prese
 nt an algorithm for determining the Gauge quantum numbers of all SM chiral
  fermions from nothing but a projection of a 5 dimensional cube. We will d
 iscuss how previous unifications such as Georgi-Glashow\, Pati-Salam\, and
  others can be seen as different aspects of this rank 5 group and what con
 ditions are used to fix the embedding corresponding to unbroken symmetries
  of the Standard Model. While our approach does violate common necessary c
 onditions for Grand Unification\, we use these difficulties to motivate ou
 r search for connections between the violation of spacetime symmetries suc
 h as Parity\, and symmetry breaking in the Gauge sector.\n\nhttps://events
