We study the allowed parameter space of the scalar sector in the superweak extension of the standard model (SM). The allowed region is defined by the conditions of (i) stability of the vacuum and (ii) perturbativity up to the Planck scale,…
The paper formulates the Standard Model with massive fermions without introduction of the Yukawa interaction of Higgs bosons with fermions. For invariance to be preserved in the newly stated theory, the covariant derivative should be…
The scattering amplitude for the longitudinal weak bosons is investigated in the SU(3) gauge-Higgs unification as a function of the scattering energy, the Wilson line phase \theta_H and the warp factor. The \theta_H-dependence of the…
Beyond the Standard Model physics is required to explain both dark matter and the baryon asymmetry of the universe, the latter possibly generated during a strong first-order electroweak phase transition. While many proposed models tackle…
We consider the electroweak theory without fundamental scalar field. The topological excitation of the SU(2)*U(1) theory (the monopole) plays the role of the Higgs field, it carries the SU(2)*U(1) topological charge due to the theta--term…
We recently showed that a new gauge boson $\gamma_B$ coupling only to baryon number is phenomenologically allowed, even if $m_B<m_Z$ and $\alpha_B \approx 0.2$. In our previous work we assumed that kinetic mixing between the baryon number…
We review the status of precision measurements of weak neutral current interactions, mediated by the $Z^0$ boson, at $Q^2\ll M_Z^2$. They can be used to extract values for the weak mixing angle $\sin^2\theta_W$, a fundamental parameter of…
We discuss an alternative implementation of the Higgs boson within the Standard Model which is possible if the renormalizability condition is relaxed. Namely, at energy scale $\Lambda$ the Higgs boson interacts at tree-level only with…
We consider renormalizable couplings of neutral $\phi$, singly $\phi^\pm$, and doubly charged $\phi^{\pm\pm}$ scalar bosons to leptons and the $Z$ gauge boson and calculate the one-loop contributions to the anomalous weak magnetic dipole…
By using the standard perturbation theory we study the mass as well as $\theta$ parameter dependence of the Seiberg-Witten theory with $SU(2)$ gauge group, supplemented with a $N=1$ supersymmetric as well as a smaller nonsupersymmetric…
After discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN the Standard Model acquired a status of the theory of the elementary particles in the electroweak range (up to about 300 GeV). What general conclusions can be inferred from the Standard Model? It…
The strong version of the Vafa-Witten theorem is shown may not to hold because the zero condensate from a direct computation of the order parameter is found to be a result on the symmetric vacuum. The validity of the Vafa-Witten theorem…
Stemming from simple postulates of nondecelerative nature of the universe expansion and Vaidya metric application, the paper offers some dependences and relations between the gravity and weak interactions. It presents a mode of independent…
Effective potential of a scalar field induced by weak gravity is studied. The set of operators relevant for leading effects and preserving the second order of field equations is found. It is shown that only the mass term and a specific…
This paper is the first in a series revisiting the Faraday effect, or more generally, the theory of electronic quantum transport/optical response in bulk media in the presence of a constant magnetic field. The independent electron…
The conditions for the cancellation of one loop contributions to vacuum energy (both U.V. divergent and finite) coming from the Standard Model (SM) fields are examined. It is proven that this is not possible unless one introduces besides…
We study the properties of heavy fermions in the vector-like representation of the electro-weak gauge group $SU(2)_W\times U(1)_Y$ with Yukawa couplings to the standard model (SM) Higgs boson. Using the renormalization group analysis, we…
We study how the \theta -term is affected by interactions in certain one-dimensional gapped systems that preserve charge-conjugation, parity, and time-reversal invariance. We exploit the relation between the chiral anomaly of a fermionic…
On the verge of conclusive checks on the Standard Model by the LHC, we discuss some of the basic assumptions. The reason for this analysis stems from a recent proposal of an Electroweak Model based on a nonlinearly realized gauge group…
In this paper, we try to construct an electroweak model which avoids using Higgs mechanism. We simultaneously introduce two sets of gauge bosons so as to keep the masses of gauge bosons $W^{\pm}$ and $Z$ non-zero without using Higgs…
