Sequestering CP Violation and GIM-Violation with Warped Extra Dimensions
We propose a model of spontaneous CP violation to address the strong CP
problem in warped extra dimensions that relies on sequestering flavor and CP
violation. We assume that brane-localized Higgs Yukawa interactions respect a
U(3) flavor symmetry that is broken only by bulk fermion mass and Yukawa terms.
All CP violation arises from the vev of a CP-odd scalar field localized in the
bulk. To suppress radiative corrections to theta-bar, the doublet quarks in
this model are localized on the IR brane. We calculate constraints from
flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNCs), precision electroweak measurements,
CKM unitarity, and the electric dipole moments in this model and predict
theta-bar to be at least about 10^-12.Comment: 38 page
