Abstract
We discuss a possible explanation of the hierarchy problem within the theories with spacetime dimensions higher than four. We show that the presence of relatively (not hierarchically) large extra dimensions can significantly alter the evolution of the Higgs field VEV, driving it to an infrared stable fixed point . Such a behaviour results in self-organizing criticality and naturally explains gauge hierarchy without any fine tuning of the parameters.
