We study the renormalization group evolution of the Higgs quartic coupling $\lambda_{H}$ and the Higgs mass $m_{H}$ in the Standard Model. The one loop equation for $\lambda_{H}$ is non linear and it is of the Riccati type which we…
We calculate the 1-loop effective potential of an Abelian Higgs model within the R_{\xi/\sigma} class of non-linear gauges that preserves the Higgs-boson low-energy theorem. The R_{\xi/\sigma} gauge involves two gauge-fixing parameters \xi…

We compute analytically the complete electroweak two-loop corrections to the $B^0-{\bar B}^0$ mixing. These corrections fix the normalization of the electroweak coupling employed in the extraction of $|V_{td}|$ and reduce the theoretical…

We study the effects of noncommutativity, in the form of a Lie-algebraically deformed Poisson commutation relations, on the evolution of a Bianchi type I cosmological model with a positive cosmological constant. The phase space variables…
Motivated by the dark matter and the baryon asymmetry problems, we analyse a complex singlet extension of the Standard Model (SM) with a Z2 symmetry (which provides a dark matter candidate). After a detailed two-loop calculation of the…
The complete fermionic two-loop contributions to the prediction for the W-boson mass from muon decay in the electroweak Standard Model are evaluated exactly, i.e. no expansion in the top-quark and the Higgs-boson mass is made. The result…
When relating the strong coupling $\alpha_s$, measured at the scale of the $Z$ boson mass, to its numerical value at some higher energy, for example the scale of Grand Unification, it is important to include higher order corrections both in…
The leading diagrammatic two-loop corrections are incorporated into the prediction for the mass of the lightest Higgs boson, $\mh$, in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The results, containing the complete diagrammatic…
We compute the two-loop O(as*at) corrections to the Higgs boson masses in supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model with Dirac gaugino masses. We rely on the effective-potential technique, allow for both Dirac and Majorana mass terms…
Left-Right symmetric models with general $g_L \neq g_R$ gauge couplings which include bidoublet and triplet scalar multiplets are studied. Possible scalar mass spectra are outlined by imposing Tree-Unitarity, and Vacuum Stability criteria…
We study the Higgs-boson mass spectrum of a classical scale-invariant realization of the two-Higgs-doublet model (SI-2HDM). The classical scale symmetry of the theory is explicitly broken by quantum loop effects due to gauge interactions,…
In part I and II of this series of papers all elements have been introduced to extend, to two loops, the set of renormalization procedures which are needed in describing the properties of a spontaneously broken gauge theory. In this paper,…
Using the asymptotic-expansion technique, we compute the dominant two-loop electroweak corrections, of O(G_F m_t^2), to production and decay via a pair of photons or gluons of the CP-odd Higgs boson A^0 in a two-Higgs-doublet model with…
We have calculated the fermion contributions to the shift of the position of the poles of the massive gauge boson propagators at two-loop order in the Standard Model. Together with the bosonic contributions calculated previously the full…
We examine the renormalization of Lee-Wick gauge theory to one loop order. We show that only knowledge of the wavefunction renormalization is necessary to determine the running couplings, anomalous dimensions, and vector boson masses. In…
