Abstract

We present a model which contains three Abelian symmetries beyond the standard model. One is anomalous \it \` a la Green-Schwarz, and family-independent; the other two are family symmetries. All are broken at a large scale by stringy effects. The model is predictive in the neutrino sector: large mixing between νμτ, and \cal O(λ3) νeμ mixings. Its natural cut-off is the gauge unification scale, orders of magnitude below the perturbative string cut-off.
