The strong evidence for the `triviality' of (lambda Phi^4)_4 theory is not incompatible with spontaneous symmetry breaking. Indeed, for a `trivial' theory the effective potential should be given exactly by the classical potential plus the…
The generally accepted ``triviality'' of $\lambda\Phi^4$ theories does not forbid Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking but implies a trivially free shifted field which becomes effectively governed by a quadratic hamiltonian. As a consequence, one…
We present a precise lattice computation of the slope of the effective potential for massless $(\lambda\Phi^4)_4$ theory in the region of bare parameters indicated by the Brahm's analysis of lattice data. Our results confirm the existence…
The "triviality" of $(\lambda\Phi^4)_4$ quantum field theory means that the renormalized coupling $\lambda_R$ vanishes for infinite cutoff. That result inherently conflicts with the usual perturbative approach, which begins by postulating a…
We present a critical reappraisal of the available results on the broken phase of $\lambda(\Phi^4)_4$ theory, as obtained from rigorous formal analyses and from lattice calculations. All the existing evidence is compatible with Spontaneous…
The `triviality' of $\Phi^4_4$ has been traditionally interpreted within perturbation theory where the prediction for the Higgs boson mass depends on the magnitude of the ultraviolet cutoff $\Lambda$. This approach crucially assumes that…

We discuss the phase transition in 3+1 dimensional lambda Phi^4 theory from a very physical perspective. The particles of the symmetric phase (`phions') interact via a hard-core repulsion and an induced, long-range -1/r^3 attraction. If the…
We further elaborate on the triviality and spontaneous symmetry breaking scenario where the Higgs boson without self-interaction coexists with spontaneous symmetry breaking. The trivial Higgs boson is rather heavy with mass m_H = 754 +/- 20…
The triviality and vacuum stability bounds on the Higgs-boson mass ($\mh$) were revisited in presence of weakly-coupled new interactions parameterized in a model-independent way by effective operators of dimension 6. The constraints from…
Theory of massless scalar field $\phi$ with interaction $g \phi^3$ in six-dimensional space is considered. A possibility of initial scale invariance breaking, which results in a spontaneous arising of effective interaction $G \phi^4$, is…
In order to investigate the Higgs mechanism nonperturbatively, we compute the Gaussian effective potential (GEP) of the U(1) Higgs model ("scalar electrodynamics"). We show that the same simple result is obtained in three different…
The triviality Higgs mass bound is studied {\it without} lattice regulator in the spontaneously broken phase of the four dimensional O(4) symmetric scalar field theory with quartic self-interaction. A higher derivative term is introduced in…
We investigate the fermions of the standard model without a Higgs scalar. Instead, we consider a non-local four-quark interaction in the tensor channel which is characterized by a single dimensionless coupling $f$. Quantization leads to a…
We present a detailed discussion of Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking (SSB) in $(\lambda\Phi^4)_4$. In the usual approach, inspired by perturbation theory, one predicts a second-order phase transition, the Higgs mass $m_h$, related to the value…
Investigating the cutoff dependence of the Higgs mass triviality bound, the $\phi^4$ theory is formulated on an $F_4$ lattice which preserves Lorentz invariance to a higher degree than the commonly used hypercubic lattice. I solve this…
The triviality and vacuum stability bounds on the Higgs-boson mass were revisited in presence of weakly-coupled new interactions parameterized in a model-independent way by effective operators of dimension 6. It was shown that for the scale…
We discuss the triviality and spontaneous symmetry breaking scenario where the Higgs boson without self-interaction coexists with spontaneous symmetry breaking. We argue that non perturbative lattice investigations support this scenario.…
Does massless (lambda Phi^4)_4 theory exhibit spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB)? The raw 1-loop result implies that it does, but the "RG-improved" result implies the opposite. I argue that the appropriate "low-energy effective theory" is…
Basing on new regularization-renormalization method, the $\lambda\phi^4$ model used in standard model is studied both perturbatively and nonperturbatively (by Gaussian effective potential). The invariant property of two mass scales is…
