We discuss renormalization group equations (RGE) for the parameters of the Higgs sector in general Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM). We present the three-loop results but consider only contributions due to self-couplings of the Higgs…

The ratio of the vacuum expectation value of the two Higgs doublets, tan(beta), is an important parameter of the general 2-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) and the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM). The expected…

After reviewing the calculation of the Standard Model one-loop effective potential in a class of linear gauges, we discuss the physical observables entering the vacuum stability analysis. While the electroweak-vacuum-stability bound on the…

We propose various properties of renormalization group beta functions for vector operators in relativistic quantum field theories. We argue that they must satisfy compensated gauge invariance, orthogonality with respect to scalar beta…
In this paper we construct a version of the standard model gauge sector on noncommutative space-time which is one-loop renormalizable to first order in the expansion in the noncommutativity parameter $\theta$. The one-loop renormalizability…
If there exists an arbitrary supersymmetric U(1) gauge factor at the TeV scale, under which the two Higgs superfields H_{1,2} of the standard model are nontrivial, and if there is also a singlet superfield S such that the H_1 H_2 S term is…
Based on considerations in conformal gauge I derive up to nextleading order a relation between the coefficients of beta-functions in 2D renormalizable field theories before and after coupling to gravity. The result implies a coupling…
We show how to perform renormalization in the framework of the 2PI effective action for abelian gauge theories. In addition to the usual renormalization conditions one needs to incorporate new ones in order to remove non-transverse UV…
The 2-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) belongs to the simplest extensions of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs sector that are in accordance with theoretical and experimental constraints. In order to be able to properly investigate the experimental…
In the most general two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM), there is no distinction between the two complex hypercharge-one SU(2) doublet scalar fields, Phi_a (a=1,2). Thus, any two orthonormal linear combinations of these two fields can serve as a…
In a series of recent works based on foliation-based quantization in which renormalizability has been achieved for the physical sector of the theory, we have shown that the use of the standard graviton propagator interferes, due to the…
The main result of this paper is a collection of conservative naturalness bounds on minimal extensions of the standard model by (vector-like) fermionic or scalar gauge multiplets. Within, we advocate for an intuitive and physical concept of…
We formulate a renormalizable complex extension of the bumblebee theory in which the bumblebee field is promoted to a complex one and coupled to an Abelian gauge sector. Besides the minimal gauge covariant interaction, the model includes a…
We study two--loop renormalization in $(2+\epsilon)$--dimensional quantum gravity. As a first step towards the full calculation, we concentrate on the divergences which are proportional to the number of matter fields. We calculate the…
