Abstract

The decay rate of the Higgs decay HZγH \to Z \gamma is evaluated at the one-loop level in the SO(5)×U(1)SO(5)\times U(1) gauge-Higgs unification. Although an infinite number of loops with Kaluza-Klein states contribute to the decay amplitude, there appears the cancellation among the loops, and the decay rate is found to be finite and non-zero. It is found that the decay rate is well approximated by the decay rate in the standard model multiplied by cos2θH\cos^2\theta_H, where θH\theta_H is the Aharonov-Bohm phase induced by the vacuum expectation value of an extra-dimensional component of the gauge field.
