Why Four Generations?

I Logical possibility

I Expt: LHC pheno–more of the same at higher mass? We haveseen it before.

I Theory: 4th generation provides UV completion ofSM/conformal fixed point at ∼10 TeV scale(P. Q. Hung and Chi Xiong, PLB 2011)

Four generation A5 and I ′ flavor models

I What if we find a fourth generation at the LHC?(Suggested by conformal fixed point models, see P.Q. Hung,et al.)

I Can we preserve the good properties of three generationmodels?

I A5 ≡ I (icosahedral symmetry) four generation lepton model
