We perform a systematic one-loop renormalization on the electroweak chiral Lagrangian (EWCL) up to $O(p^4)$ operators and construct the renormalization group equations (RGE) for the anomalous couplings. We examine the impact of the triple…
We explore the phenomenology of virtual spin-1 contributions to the h to gamma gamma and h to Z gamma decay rates in gauge extensions of the standard model. We consider generic lorentz and gauge invariant vector self-interactions, which can…
These three lectures review the state of our understanding of electroweak interactions and the search for the agent of electroweak symmetry breaking. The themes of the lectures are (i) the electroweak theory and its experimental status,…
In this talk, I discuss theoretical advances in understanding the properties of the Higgs boson and the implications for models of electroweak symmetry breaking. I begin by reviewing some of the recent progress in Standard Model…
Due to the gap between the known 100 GeV scale and new physics if any, it is natural to employ an effective one-loop Lagrangian (HEFT) for the particles of the Electroweak Symmetry Breaking Sector (W_L, Z_L and h). To describe any new…
We calculate radiative corrections to a full set of coupling constants for the 125 GeV Higgs boson at the one-loop level in two Higgs doublet models with four types of Yukawa interaction under the softly-broken discrete $Z_2$ symmetry. The…
We consider the electroweak theory with an additional neutral vector boson $Z^\prime$ at one loop. We propose a renormalization scheme which makes the decoupling of heavy $Z^\prime$ effects manifest. The proposed scheme justifies the usual…
The renormalization of quantum field theories usually assumes Lorentz and gauge symmetries, besides the general restrictions imposed by unitarity and causality. However, the set of renormalizable theories can be enlarged by relaxing some of…
The on-shell renormalization scheme for the electroweak theory is well studied in the standard model(SM), but a consistent on-shell renormalization scheme for the minimal supersymmetric standard model(MSSM) is still unknown. In MSSM, we…
Renormalized triple gauge vertices (TGV) are examined within the two-Higgs-doublet model of electroweak interactions. Deviations of the TGV from their standard-model values are calculated at the one-loop level, in the on-shell…
In this work, the one-loop renormalization of a theory for fields transforming in the $(1,0)\oplus(0,1)$ representation of the Homogeneous Lorentz Group is studied. The model includes an arbitrary gyromagnetic factor and self-interactions…
In this talk, using deconstruction, we analyze the form of the corrections to the electroweak interactions in a large class of ``Higgsless'' models of electroweak symmetry breaking, allowing for arbitrary 5-D geometry, position-dependent…
The applicability of the background field method in spontaneously broken gauge theories is examined with new features emphasized. An explicit one loop analysis in the electroweak theory shows that the method can be consistently implemented…
We study radiative corrections to third generation scalar fermions into gauge bosons $Z$ and $W^\pm$. We include both SUSY-QCD, QED and full electroweak corrections. It is found that the electroweak corrections can be of the same order as…
We apply Pade summation to the \beta(\lambda) function for the quartic Higgs coupling \lambda in the standard electroweak model. We use the \beta function calculated to five loops in the minimal subtraction scheme to demonstrate the…
The renormalization in a Lorentz-breaking scalar-spinor higher-derivative model involving $\phi^4$ self-interaction and the Yukawa-like coupling is studied. We explicitly de- monstrate that the convergence is improved in comparison with the…
We present the first complete calculation of the one-loop electroweak effect in the process of semi-inclusive bottom-Higgs production at LHC in the MSSM. The size of the electroweak contribution depends on the choice of the final produced…
In this talk, I shall address two key issues related to electroweak symmetry breaking. First, how fine-tuned different models are that trigger this phenomenon? Second, even if a light Higgs boson exists, does it have to be necessarily…
Low energy effects of generic extensions of the Standard Model can be comprehensively parametrized in terms of higher dimensional effective operators. After the success of all the recent precission tests on the Standard Model, we argue that…
In the absence of a tree-level scalar-field mass, renormalization-group methods permit the explicit summation of leading-logarithm contributions to all orders of the perturbative series within the effective potential for $SU(2)\times U(1)$…
