Mass Pattern of the SM Fermions: Flavor Democracy Revisited

Mass pattern of the SM fermions is one of the most important mysteries in particle physics. Flavor Democracy could shed light on this mystery. Addition of isosinglet quark and isosinglet lepton give opportunity to obtain masses of charged leptons and quarks of the 2nd and 3rd family due to small deviations from full Flavor Democracy.
