We discuss the constraints on new physics from Higgs production through vector boson fusion in the context of an effective field theory that preserves Standard Model gauge symmetries. We find that the constraints on dimension-6 operators…
The ATLAS and CMS collaborations have announced discovery of a ~125 GeV Higgs boson, after a combined analysis of the di-photon and ZZ search channels. This observation has significant impact on low-energy supersymmetry. First, some…
Constraints on the full set of Standard Model dimension-6 operators have previously used triple-gauge couplings to complement the constraints obtainable from Higgs signal strengths. Here we extend previous analyses of the Higgs sector…
We systematically discuss the consequences of genuine dimension-six Higgs operators. These operators are not subject to stringent constraints from electroweak precision data. However, they can modify the couplings of the Higgs boson to…

We investigate the amount of fine tuning of the electroweak scale in the presence of new physics beyond the MSSM, parametrized by higher dimensional operators. We show that these significantly reduce the MSSM fine tuning to Delta<10 for a…
The discovery of the Higgs boson has opened a new window to test the SM through the measurements of its couplings. Of particular interest is the measured Higgs coupling to photons which arises in the SM at the one-loop level, and can then…
The operators that break supersymmetry can be holomorphic or non-holomorphic in structure. The latter do not pose any problem for gauge hierarchy and are soft provided that the particle spectrum does not contain any gauge singlets. In…
No matter what the scale of new physics is, deviations from the Standard Model for the Higgs observables will indicate the existence of such a scale. We consider effective six dimensional operators, and their effects on the Higgs…
We probe the dimension-six operators contributing to Higgs production in association with a $Z$ boson at the future high-luminosity electron-positron colliders. Potential constraints on dimension-six operators in the Higgs sector are…
We study the stability of the Higgs potential in the framework of the effective Lagrangian beyond the MSSM. While the leading nonrenormalizable operators can shift the Higgs boson mass above the experimental bound, they also tend to render…
We study the inter-relations that exist between the present experimental bounds on the Higgs mass, as obtained from radiative corrections to $m_W$, and the effective parameters, $\alpha_i$ and $\Lambda$. We find that the SM bounds on $m_H$,…
The triviality of the scalar sector of the standard one-doublet Higgs model implies that this model is only an effective low-energy theory valid below some cut-off scale Lambda. For a heavy higgs this scale must be relatively low (10 TeV or…
New physics near the TeV scale can generate dimension-six operators that modify the production rate and branching ratios of the Higgs boson. Here, we show how Higgs boson pair production can yield complementary information on dimension-six…
We consider extensions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) where the extra degrees of freedom interact weakly with the Higgs sector. These models allow to relax the tension between the lower bound on the lightest CP even…
We study the possible contributions of dimension six operators containing fermion fields to Higgs production at a 500 GeV or 1 TeV $e^+e^-$ linear collider. We show that -- depending on the production mechanism -- the effects of such…
We compute the renormalization of dimension six Higgs-gauge boson operators that can modify \Gamma(h -> \gamma \gamma) at tree-level. Operator mixing is shown to lead to an important modification of new physics effects which has been…
A generic heavy Higgs has both dim-4 and effective dim-6 interactions with the Standard Model (SM) particles. The former has been the focus of LHC searches in all major Higgs production channels, just as the SM one, but with negative…
We study the new physics(NP) related to the recent discovered 125 GeV Higgs by employing an important subset of the standard model(SM) gauge invariant dimension-six operators constructed by the the SM Higgs and gauge fields. Explicitly, we…
We consider extended scalar sectors of the Standard Model as ultraviolet-complete motivations for studying the effective Higgs self-interaction operators of the Standard Model effective field theory. We investigate all motivated heavy…
