Abstract
We investigate ten-dimensional gauge theories whose extra six-dimensional space is a compact coset space, , and whose gauge group is a direct product of two Lie groups. We list candidates of the gauge group and embeddings of into them. After dimensional reduction of the coset space, we find fermion and scalar representations of with , and , which accommodate all of the standard model particles. We also discuss possibilities to generate distinct Yukawa couplings among the generations using representations with different dimensions for and models.
