<Palash Baran Pal> coauthored a study asking whether a <grand unified theory> can explain the number of <fermion generations>. The paper tests antisymmetric <representations> of <special unitary groups>, using <branching rules> and <gauge anomaly> cancellation to restrict the matter content. Its proposed construction illustrates how mathematical consistency can eliminate particle models before their detailed phenomenology is considered; the generation count depends on the model's assumptions.<Number of fermion generations from a novel grand unified model by Pritibhajan Byakti and others>[Abstract and section 3: failed embeddings, representation branching and proposed generation-count construction]{ref}
