The fermion masses and mixing angles are fitted using only three free parameters in a nonsupersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, with new, approximately conserved chiral gauge quantum numbers broken by a set of Higgs fields. The fundamental mass scale of this anti-grand-unification model is given by the Planck mass. We also calculate neutrino mixing angles and masses, as well as CP violation from the CKM matrix. A good fit to the observed fermion masses is obtained, but our predictions of the neutrino masses are too small to lead to any observable neutrino oscillation effects claimed today, without introducing another mass scale. We also give some arguments in support of this type of model based on the observed fermion masses.

A brief review is given of some ideas for explaining neutrino masses and mixings within the context of supersymmetric grand unification. Emphasis is put on so-called lopsided models.

O(10) grand unification models which do not necessarily have an extra global symmetry are discussed, taking the model with one 10-plet in the Yukawa sector as an example. A strong correlation between mass ratios and CP is found. The mass relation mt/mb=vu/vd is recovered when GW=0; and another special relation mt/mb=GE/GW appears when vd=0, where GE,W are Yukawa coupling constants and vu,d are vevs. To facilitate this discussion, a set of O(10) γ-matrices is offered based on a physical representation of the spinors and that of the vector of the SO(10) group. Flavor changing neutral currents in such models are also discussed.
