摘要
We discuss how CP symmetry can be broken geometrically through orbifold projections in hidden extra dimensions in the context of brane-bulk models for particle unifications. The CP violation arises from a crash between the geometry of the compactification and the original higher dimensional CP definition. We present toy models to illustrate the idea and-suggest ways to incorporate it into more realistic models.
