For all the success of the Standard Model (SM), it is on the verge of being surpassed.
- In this regard we argue, by showing a minimal flavor-structured model based on the non-Abelian discrete $SL_2(F_3)$ symmetry, that $U(1)$ mixed-gravitational anomaly cancellation could be of central importance in constraining the fermion contents of a new chiral gauge theory.
- Such anomaly-free condition together with the SM flavor structure demands a condition $k_1\,X_1/2=k_2\,X_2$ with $X_i$ being a charge of $U(1)_{X_i}$ and $k_i$ being an integer, both of which are flavor dependent.
- We show that axionic domain-wall condition $N_{\rm DW}$ with the anomaly free-condition depends on both $U(1)_X$ charged quark and lepton flavors; the seesaw scale congruent to the scale of Peccei-Quinn symmetry breakdown can be constrained through constraints coming from astrophysics and particle physics.
