Abstract

We compute the large-mtm_t contributions to the ZbbZb\overline b vertex in the Standard Model non-perturbatively using both the 1/\nc1/\nc and the 1/\nf1/\nf expansions. Triviality and its consequences for the perturbative result are systematically analyzed. In particular, we point out that the effect of triviality is already important at the two-loop level for a heavy Higgs (600\gev<MH<1\tev600\gev<M_H<1\tev) even when the top mass is below 200\gev200\gev.
