Chiral fermions and quadratic divergences

We present an alternative to the standard model with unitary gauge group $U(N{)}^p$ and chiral fermions in bifundamentals. Although the construction allows scalars in adjoints and bifundamentals, only models without adjoint scalars have strikingly, without supersymmetry, absence of one-loop quadratic divergence in the scalar propagator. Decisive support for these ideas could arise from new experimental results anticipated at the LHC proton collider.
