The Oasis Theory of Flavor Hierarchy

The Oasis Theory of Flavor Hierarchy proposes that Yukawa couplings are not fundamental constants, but fossilized imprints of a primordial non-homogeneous phase of the early Universe. Within this framework, the observed flavor hierarchy emerges from spatial variations in vacuum properties during the electroweak epoch, leaving a permanent imprint on elementary particles. The work presents a unified conceptual approach to the flavor puzzle, connecting particle masses, Yukawa couplings, and cosmological evolution without introducing new particles or additional dimensions.
