     12== Description of the Model ==
     13
     14Colored vector bosons from new strong dynamics, Kaluza-Klein gluons or KKg’s (G*) in a dual 5D picture, have been searched for mainly in the t-tbar channel.  The analysis in [http://arxiv.org/pdf/1409.7607v2.pdf 1409.7607v2] analyzes the tc decay as depicted below:

     16In this model, the third generation quarks couple differently than the light quarks under an extended

     21color gauge group.  The mixing between light and third generation quarks is induced by the interactions of all three generation quarks with a set of new heavy vector0like quarks.  The model reproduces the CKM mixing and generates flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNCs) from non-standard interactions.  Due to the specific structure of the model, dangerous FCNCs are naturally suppressed and a large portion of the model parameter space is allowed by the data on meson mixing process and on

     26The extended color symmetry is broken down to

     43Breaking the color symmetry induces a mixing between the

     58where g_s is the QCD strong coupling and g_1 and g_2 are the SU(3)_1 and SU(3)_2 gauge couplings, respectively.  The mixing diagonalization reveals two color vector boson mass eigenstates: the mass-less SM gluon and a new massive color-octet vector boson G* given by

     63In the NMFV model, the third generation quarks couple differently than the light quarks under the extended color group.

     78The G* interactions with the color currents associated with SU(3)_1 and SU(3)_2 are given by

     90Gluon-gluon fusion production is forbidden at tree level by SU(3)_C gauge invariance.

     99Additionally, the NMFV flavor structure of the model generates a G* to tc flavor violating decay with rate

     104where V_cb=0.0415$ is the CKM matrix element. Note here that G* FCNCs are induced by the mixing among left-handed quarks generated by the exchange of heavy vector-like quarks. This mixing is controlled by the 3x3 matrices U_L and D_L in the up- and down-quark sectors, respectively. In particular, the G* to tc flavor violating decay is controlled by the
     105{{{
     106#!latex

     109element. The CKM mixing matrix is given by

     114At first order in the mixing parameters,

     117$(U_L)_{23}\equiv V_{cb} - (D_L)_{23}$.

     119The non-diagonal elements of D_L are strongly constrained by the data on

     122$b\to s \gamma$. \rm{So } $(D_L)_{23}$

     124is thus forced to be small and, as a consequence,
