In this paper, motivated by the recent discovery of a Higgs-like boson at the LHC with a mass m_H\simeq 126 GeV, we review different models where the hierarchy problem is solved by means of a warped extra dimension. In the Randall-Sundrum…
In this thesis we have explored some of the phenomenological aspects of warped/flat extra dimensional theories and their interface with supersymmetry. We study the numerical impact of compactified warped extra dimension on the processes gg…
Depending on the Higgs-boson and top-quark masses, $M_H$ and $M_t$, the effective potential of the {\bf Standard Model} can develop a non-standard minimum for values of the field much larger than the weak scale. In those cases the standard…
We compute a unitarity bound for higgs mass using one--loop corrected s--wave partial amplitude for $Z_L Z_L \rightarrow Z_L Z_L$ scattering. We use the equivalence theorem and show that the higgs mass has to be less than $\approx 600$ GeV…
The excluded tan(beta) range and Higgs boson mass regions in the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) depend on several parameters. The Higgs boson masses, cross-sections and branching fractions…
Besides supersymmetry, the other prime candidate of physics beyond the standard model (SM), crying out for verification at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), is extra-dimension. To hunt for effects of Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitations of…
We study grand unified models in the five-dimensional space-time where the extra dimension is compactified on $S^1/Z_2$. The spontaneous breaking of unified gauge symmetries is achieved via vacuum expectation values of the extra-dimensional…
We discuss the bound on the mass of the Higgs boson arising from precision electroweak measurements in the context of the triviality of the scalar Higgs model. We show that, including possible effects from the underlying nontrivial…
We present a short review of theories based on warped extra dimensions (motivated by the hierarchy problem of the Standard Model) which can accomodate a Higgs boson in the range suggested by the recent LHC results at 7 TeV. Using the…
We calculate one-loop radiative correction to the mass of Higgs identified with the extra space components of the gauge field in a six dimensional massive scalar QED compactified on a two-sphere. The radiatively induced Higgs mass is…
We point out that the discovery of a light Higgs boson in the \gamma\gamma, ZZ and WW decay channels at the LHC, with cross sections not far from the predictions of the Standard Model, would have important implications for the parameters of…
The electroweak symmetry may be broken by a composite Higgs which arises naturally as a bound state of the top quark if the standard model gauge fields and fermions propagate in extra dimenions. The top quark mass and the Higgs mass can be…
The discovery of the Higgs boson, with mass known to better than the percent level, enables for the first time precision Higgs boson analyses. Toward this goal, we define an expansion formalism of the Higgs boson partial widths and…
Precision measurements of the Higgs boson properties at the LHC provide relevant constraints on possible weak-scale extensions of the Standard Model (SM). In the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) these constraints…
We present an implementation of the model of minimal universal extra dimensions (MUED) in CalcHEP/CompHEP. We include all level-1 and level-2 Kaluza-Klein (KK) particles outside the Higgs sector. The mass spectrum is automatically…
We analyze the effect of flat universal extra dimensions (i.e., extra dimensions accessible to all SM fields) on the process b -> s gamma. With one Higgs doublet, the dominant contribution at one-loop is from Kaluza-Klein (KK) states of the…
A Standard-Model-like Higgs boson should be light in order to comply with electroweak precision measurements from LEP. We consider five-dimensional (5D) warped models -- with a deformation of the metric in the IR region -- as UV completions…
We demonstrate a measurement of the Higgs boson mass by the method of energy scanning at photon-photon colliders, using the high energy edge of the photon spectrum. With an integrated luminosity of 50 $\rm{fb^{-1}}$ it is possible to…

We extract from data the parameters of the Higgs potential, the top Yukawa coupling and the electroweak gauge couplings with full 2-loop NNLO precision, and we extrapolate the SM parameters up to large energies with full 3-loop NNLO RGE…
