We present several advances in the effective field theory calculation of the Higgs mass in MSSM scenarios with heavy superparticles. In particular, we compute the dominant two-loop threshold corrections to the quartic Higgs coupling for…
A formulation of the linear $\sigma$ model with derivative interactions is studied. The classical theory is on-shell equivalent to the $\sigma$ model with the standard quartic Higgs potential. The mass of the scalar mode only appears in the…

Harmonic superspace can be used to construct higher derivative terms in N=2 supersymmetric effective actions despite the infinite redundancy in their description due to the infinite number of auxiliary fields. We are able to write down all…

We consider a decoupling scenario within the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) with small CP-violation. Mass eigenstates of this model include one neutral scalar field with the mass of the Standard model (SM) Higgs boson and four other…
In the framework of supersymmetric Grand Unified Theories, the minimal Higgs sector is often extended by introducing multi-dimensional Higgs representations in order to obtain realistic models. However these constructions should remain…
We consider the theories obtained by dimensional reduction to D=1,2,3 of 4D supersymmetric Yang--Mills theories and calculate there the effective low-energy lagrangia describing moduli space dynamics -- the low-dimensional analogs of the…
We study the indirect effects of new physics on the phenomenology of the recently discovered "Higgs-like" particle. In a model independent framework these effects can be parametrized in terms of an effective Lagrangian at the electroweak…

When the Standard Model is interpreted as the renormalizable sector of a low-energy effective theory, the effects of new physics are encoded into a set of higher dimensional operators. These operators potentially deform the shapes of…
In a recent re-analysis of the Standard Model (SM) beta-function for the effective neutrino mass operator, we found that the previous results were not entirely correct. Therefore, we consider the analogous dimension five operators in a…
