The three phase transitions - the GUT, the electro-weak and the quark-hadron, which the universe is assumed to have undergone produce very important physical effects if they are assumed to be of first order. It is also important that enough…
We study the occurrence of a strong first-order electroweak phase transition in composite Higgs models. Minimal constructions realising this scenario are based on the coset SO(6)/SO(5) which delivers an extended Higgs sector with an…
After some introductory remarks about the prospects of first order phase transitions in the early universe, we discuss in some detail the electroweak phase transition. In the standard model case a clear picture is arising including…
We argue that the SM in the Higgs phase does not suffer form a "hierarchy problem" and that similarly the "cosmological constant problem" resolves itself if we understand the SM as a low energy effective theory emerging from a cut-off…
In a recent paper, we introduced a new Little Higgs model, which contains the gauge structure $SU(2)^3\times U(1)$, embedded in an approximate global $SO(5)\times SO(5)$ symmetry. After breaking to the standard model, $SU(2)_L \times…
The constraint on the mass of Higgs field in the Standard Model at the minimal interaction with the gravity is derived in the form of lower bound $m_H> 150$ GeV by the strict requirement of decoupling the Higgs boson from the inflation of…
We show that in 3-3-1 models there exist a natural relation among the $SU(3)_L$ coupling constant $g$, the electroweak mixing angle $\theta_W$, the mass of the $W$, and one of the vacuum expectation values, which implies that those models…
We give the nonperturbative phase diagram of the four-dimensional hot electroweak phase transition. A systematic extrapolation $a \to 0$ is done. Our results show that the finite temperature SU(2)-Higgs phase transition is of first order…
Two moderate extensions of the minimal supersymmetric standard model are considered. The first one includes a U(1)_{B-L} gauge group, while the second is based on a left-right symmetric gauge group. In these models, hybrid inflation is…
We build a supersymmetric version of a recently proposed SU(3)xSU(3)xU(1)X model with heavy charged lepton and no bilepton gauge bosons.The model is an anomaly free, three generation extension of the Standard model with SU(3)L x U(1)gauge…
I am considering Veltman's "The Infrared - Ultraviolet Connection" addressing the issue of quadratic divergences and the related huge radiative correction predicted by the electroweak Standard Model (SM) in the relationship between the bare…
The stability of the electroweak vacuum imposes important constraints on new physics models. Such new physics models may introduce one or more new thermal phases with a lower free energy than that of the electroweak vacuum. In this case,…
The unjustly neglected method of exactly solving generalized electro-weak models - with an original spontaneous symmetry breaking mechanism based on the gauge group $SU(n)_{L}\otimes U(1)_{Y}$ - is applied here to a particular class of…
The scalar sector of the simplest version of the 3-3-1 electroweak models is constructed with three Higgs triplets only. We show that a relation involving two of the constants of the Higgs potential, two vacuum expectation values of the…
In many extensions of the Standard Model electroweak phase transitions at high temperatures can be described in a minimal dimensionally reduced effective theory with SU(2) gauge field and fundamental Higgs scalar. In this effective theory,…
We present a renormalizable model of electroweak interactions containing an extra $SU(2)'_L\otimes SU(2)'_R$ symmetry. The masses of the corresponding gauge bosons and of the associated Higgs particles can be made heavy by tuning a…
We study an extension of the Standard Model with a dark SU(2) gauge group, where a dark scalar doublet interacts with the Standard Model Higgs through a portal coupling, inducing mixing after symmetry breaking. A custodial symmetry ensures…
In this work we study an effective version of the 3-3-1 model, in which the particle content is the same of the 2HDM. We show that the inherited structure from the $SU(3)_C \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes U(1)_X$ gauge group has a series of…
The cosmic evolution of a dark matter model which behaves relativistically in the early Universe is explored. Dark matter is described as a complex scalar field, whose earliest evolution is characterized by a stiff equation of state ($p…
We propose a model for cosmic inflation which is based on an effective description of strongly interacting, nonsupersymmetric matter within the framework of dynamical Abelian projection and centerization. The underlying gauge symmetry is…
