Abstract

Electroweak theory with two massless Higgs doublets is studied by solving renormalization group equations for coupling constants in one-loop approximation. A cutoff~Λ\Lambda, at which one of quartic couplings in the Higgs potential blows up, is obtained by imposing constraints from the oblique parameter TT on the quartic couplings at low energy. We find Λ0.528.4\Lambda \simeq 0.52\sim 8.4~TeV at the Higgs mass MH=100M_H=100 GeV. The cutoff Λ\Lambda is at most about 6060 TeV even if we take into account the LEP lower bound of MH64M_H\simeq 64 GeV. It cannot reach the Planck or GUT scale due to severe experimental constraints. It is impossible in the model to realize a large gauge hierarchy as suggested many years ago by S. Weinberg.
