dc.descriptionWe discuss the proper starting point to look into flavor physics under the perspective of solving the hierarchy problem with the little Higgs mechanism -- the construction of anomaly free fermionic spectra of the effective theory of extended electroweak gauge symmetry around the TeV scale. Anomaly cancellations among the three SM families, plus extra fermions, are typically needed, giving family non-universal flavor structures. Such a completed and consistent fermionic spectrum supplements a scalar sector little Higgs model, turning the latter into a realistic model the phenomenological viability of which can then be investigated. The implications for flavor physics are specially interesting. We give more elaborated discussion here on our basic perspective, trying to clarify on issues that are in our opinion under-appreciated. We also add a brief comment of little Higgs versus supersymmetry.
