We investigate a scalar potential inspired by the unparticle sector for the electroweak symmetry breaking. The scalar potential contains the interaction between the standard model fields and unparticle sector. It is described by the…
In the context of scalar-tensor models of dark energy and inflation, the dynamics of vacuum scalar-tensor cosmology are analysed without specifying the coupling function or the scalar field potential. A conformal transformation to the…
Performing lattice simulations of the four dimensional SU(2)gluodynamics we find evidence for existence of three-dimensional domains whose total volume scales in physical units. Technically, the domains are defined in terms of the minimal…
Inspired by a recently proposed GUT model based on the trinification ($\mathrm{SU}(3)^3$) gauge group with a global family ($\mathrm{SU}(3)_F$) symmetry, we consider an effective low-energy three Higgs doublet model that may shed light on…
We study the dynamics of a scalar field in the brane cosmology. We assume that a scalar field is confined in our 4-dimensional world. As for the potential of the scalar field, we discuss three typical models: (1) a power-law potential, (2)…
We study a classically scale-invariant model with an electroweak singlet scalar mediator together with a scalar dark matter multiplet of global $O(N)$ symmetry. Our most general conformally invariant scalar potential generates the…
The two-Higgs doublet model (2HDM) can have two electroweak breaking, CP-conserving, minima. The possibility arises that the minimum which corresponds to the known elementary particle spectrum is metastable, a possibility we call the "panic…
In this paper we analyse the doublet-triplet splitting problem in the minimal non-super-symmetric $SU(5)$ GUT. We take into account the full symmetry breaking pattern with both high scale $SU(5)$ breaking and electroweak symmetry breaking.…
We study scalar singlet extensions of the Standard Model (SM), focusing on scenarios where dark matter (DM) is stabilized by a \(\mathbb{Z}_2\) symmetry. In the minimal single-scalar extension of the SM, only a narrow region near the Higgs…
We demonstrate that Standard Model vacuum stability exhibits extreme sensitivity to the Higgs quartic coupling: a mere 3\% enhancement represents the critical threshold separating metastability from absolute stability with UV Landau poles.…
Recently, we have proposed a definition for the vacuum and suggest a mechanism for symmetry breaking. In this mechanism extra massless fields, vacuum fields, arise. We apply our method to the standard model of particle physics and obtain…
We show that the typical 3-3-1 models are only self-consistent if they contain interactions explicitly violating the lepton number. The 3-3-1 model with right-handed neutrinos can by itself work as an economical 3-3-1 model as a natural…
We study two types of models involving a scalar dark matter multiplet of global $O(N)$ symmetry. These models are distinguished by the absence (Type I) or presence (Type II) of a scalar mediator with $Z_{2}$ symmetry. We derive the allowed…
We point out that if the majoron-like scheme is implemented within a 331 model, there must exist at least three different mass scales for the scalar vacuum expectation values in the model.
We show that in a broken supergravity theory any field that acquires a vacuum expectation value obtains at the same time a non vanishing F-term whose natural size is given by $<\theta> m_{3/2}$. These F-terms contribute unsuppressed to the…
We consider a scalar field $\phi$ whose coupling to the kinetic term of a non-abelian gauge field is set at an UV scale $M$. Then the confinement of the gauge sector will induce a $\phi$-dependent vacuum energy which generates a…
The three dimensional XY model with quenched random disorder and finite screening is studied. We argue that the system scales to model with $\lambda\simeq 0\simeq T$ and the resulting effective model is studied numerically by defect energy…
We consider a simple extension of the electroweak theory, incorporating one $SU(2)_L$ doublet of colour-octet scalars with Yukawa couplings satisfying the principle of minimal flavour violation. Using the HEPfit package, we perform a global…
Electroweak precision data has been extensively used to constrain models containing physics beyond that of the Standard Model. When the model contains Higgs scalars in representations other than SU(2) singlets or doublets, and hence rho not…
The scalar potential of any particle-physics model must be bounded from below (BFB). We consider the extension of the Standard electroweak Model with three $SU(2)$ doublets of scalars and a symmetry under which each of those doublets…
