Fermions, differential forms and doubled geometry

We show that all fermions of one generation of the Pati–Salam version of the Standard Model (SM) can be elegantly described by a single fixed parity (say even) inhomogeneous real-valued differential form in seven dimensions. In this formalism the full kinetic term of the SM fermionic Lagrangian is r...
