Operators in ultraviolet completions for collective symmetry breaking

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2014-11-18 v3

Abstract

We investigate the Lagrangian terms of scalar-gauge interactions in a weakly-coupled gauge theory beyond the ultraviolet momentum cutoff of models where the collective symmetry breaking mechanism protects the Higgs mass squared against having quadratic divergence. We also propose a five-dimensional model in which the gauge symmetry breaking is achieved by boundary conditions consistent with local gauge transformations. It is shown that the scalar-gauge operators in the two models differ in the absence of quadratic divergence.
