A lattice simulation in the broken phase of four-dimensional (lambda Phi^4) theory in the Ising limit suggests that, in the continuum limit, the scalar condensate rescales by a factor different from the conventional wavefunction…
As is well known, electroweak breaking in the MSSM requires substantial fine-tuning, mainly due to the smallness of the tree-level Higgs quartic coupling, lambda_tree. Hence the fine tuning is efficiently reduced in supersymmetric models…
The non-observation of new particles at the LHC suggests the existence of a mass gap above the electroweak scale. This situation is adequately described through a general electroweak effective theory with the established fields and Standard…
In this paper, we study the spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking for a four-dimensional massless four-fermion model. Our methodology is based on use of the rationalized propagator. We show that a bumblebee potential arises as a result of…

We give a general $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R$ $\times U(1)_{EM}$ sigma model with external sources, dynamical breaking and spontaneous vacuum symmetry breaking, and present the general formulation of the model. It is found that $\sigma $ and…
We investigate the fermions of the standard model without a Higgs scalar. Instead, we consider a non-local four-quark interaction in the tensor channel which is characterized by a single dimensionless coupling $f$. Quantization leads to a…
Charge symmetry breaking (CSB) in the $\Lambda$-nucleon strong interaction generates a charge dependence of $\Lambda$ separation energies in mirror hypernuclei, which in the case of the $A=4$ mirror hypernuclei $0^+$ ground states is…
We systematically explore the landscape of nonrelativistic effective field theories with a local $S$-matrix and enhanced symmetries and soft behavior. The exploration is carried out using both conventional quantum field theory methods based…
We consider the symmetric and broken phases of light-front $\phi^4$ theory in two dimensions. In both cases the mass of the lowest state is computed and its dependence on the coupling used to infer critical coupling values. The structure of…
We consider the non-relativistic four-body system with large scattering length and short-range interactions within an effective theory with contact interactions only. We compute the binding energies of the 4He tetramer and of…
We review the usual account of the phenomena of spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB), pointing out the common misunderstandings surrounding the issue, in particular within the context of quantum field theory. In fact, the common explanations…
