Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model with scalar superpartners above 10 TeV are well motivated since the Higgs boson mass can be explained by quantum corrections while maintaining gauge coupling unification. If supersymmetry…
The chiral Abelian Higgs model contains an interesting class of solitons found by Rubakov and Tavkhelidze. These objects carry non-zero fermion number $N_F$ (or Chern-Simons number $N_{CS}$, what is the same because of the chiral anomaly)…
We investigate dark matter phenomenology and Higgs inflation in a dark $U(1)_D$-extended model. The model features two dark matter candidates, a dark fermion and a dark vector boson. When the fermion dark matter $\psi$ is heavier than the…
Motivated by the deviation of the W boson mass reported by the CDF collaboration, we study an extension of the Standard Model (SM) including a vector dark matter (VDM) candidate and a scalar mediator. In the model, the one-loop corrections…
In the context of No-Scale F-SU(5), a model defined by the convergence of the F-lipped SU(5) Grand Unified Theory, two pairs of hypothetical TeV scale vector-like supersymmetric multiplets with origins in F-theory, and the dynamically…
Compared to the minimal supersymmetric standard model, an extension by vectorlike fermions is able to explain the Higgs mass while retains the grand unification. We investigate the minimal vectorlike model by focusing on the vectorlike…
In supersymmetric models with minimal particle content and without large left-right squarks mixing, the conventional knowledge is that the Higgs Boson mass around 125 GeV leads to top squark masses ${\cal O}(10)$ TeV, far beyond the reach…
Recent study on the charged top-pion correction to R_b shows that it is negative and large, so that the precision experimental value of R_b gives rise to a severe constraint on the topcolor-assisted technicolor models such that the top-pion…
We discuss the upper bound on the gluino mass in supersymmetric models with vector-like extra matters. In order to realize the observed Higgs mass of 125 GeV, the gluino mass is bounded from above in supersymmetric models. With the…
If electroweak dynamical symmetry breaking is due to a chiral condensate of color sextet quarks, dynamics analagous to ``walking technicolor'' will enhance the condensate by orders of magnitude compared to the electroweak chiral scale. This…
We present the phenomenology of the charged Higgs boson $H^\pm$ appearing in a fermionic dark matter model mediated by an additional scalar doublet. In order to couple the dark matter fermion to the scalar doublet, we introduce a U(1)$_X$…
In the present work we search for renormalization group invariant relations among the various massless and massive parameters of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We find that indeed several of the previously free parameters of the…
In this paper, we investigate how the LHC data limit the Higgs-related couplings in the effective description of a strongly interacting extension of the Standard model. The Higgs boson is introduced as a scalar composite state and it is…
The recently observed boson at 125 GeV could be a light composite scalar from near-conformal technicolor dynamics: a technicolor Higgs. If this is the case, unitarization of longitudinal weak boson scattering amplitudes, which is due to…
We present discovery signatures of techni-dilaton (TD) at LHC. The TD was predicted long ago as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) associated with the spontaneous breaking of the approximate scale symmetry in the walking technicolor…
The lack of evidence for low energy supersymmetry at the LHC implies a supersymmetry scale in excess a TeV. While this is consistent (and even helpful) with a Higgs boson mass at $\approx$ 125 GeV, simple supersymmetric models with scalar…
Correction to the $b\rightarrow s\gamma$ branching ratio in the multiscale walking technicolor model (MWTCM) is examined. For the original MWTCM, the correction is too large to explain the recent CLEO data. We show that if topcolor is…
It is quite possible that the Technicolor problems are related to the poorly known self-energy expression, or the way chiral symmetry breaking (CSB) is realized in non-abelian gauge theories. Actually, the only known laboratory to test the…
We consider axion-mediated dark matter models motivated by Fermi gamma ray line at 130 GeV, where anomaly interactions of an axion-like scalar mediate a singlet Dirac fermion dark matter (DM) to electroweak gauge bosons. In these models,…
The latest LHC data suggest an intriguing excess at $m_{\gamma\gamma} = 750$ GeV which apparently requires an explanation from the beyond standard model physics. In this note we explore the possibility for this signal to arise from a…
