Abstract
A generalization of the Yang–Mills covariant derivative, that uses both vector and scalar fields and transforms as a four-vector contracted with Dirac matrices, is used to simplify the Glashow–Weinberg–Salam model. Since SU(3) assigns the wrong hypercharge to the Higgs boson, it is necessary to use a special representation of U(3) to obtain all the correct quantum numbers. A surplus gauge scalar boson emerges in the process, but it uncouples from all other particles.
