The unified compositeness of leptons, quarks and Higgs bosons is proposed as a possible scenario for New Physics beyond the Standard Model. The following topics of the scenario are briefly discussed: - Chiral gauge exceptional symmetry E_6…
We derive the coupling to torsion of massive electroweak vector bosons generated by the Higgs mechanism.
Within the scalar-tensor theory of gravity with Higgs mechanism without Higgs particles, we prove that the excited Higgs potential (the scalar field) vanishs inside and outside of the stellar matter for static spherically symmetric…
We incorporate the parameters of the gauge group G into the gauge theory of interactions through a non-linear partial-trace sigma-model Lagrangian on G/H. The minimal coupling of the new (Goldstone-like) scalar bosons provides mass terms to…
The Weyl meson arises in theories with local scale invariance. It acts as a candidate for dark matter in a generalized Standard Model with local scale invariance. The Higgs particle is absent from the physical spectrum in this theory. We…
We present an effective model for particle mass generation in which we extract generic features of the Higgs mechanism that do not depend on its interpretation in terms of a Higgs field. In this model the physical vacuum is assumed as a…
Starting from the equations of motion of the fields involved in a theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking and by making simple assumptions regarding their behavior we derive simple tree level relations between the mass of the Higgs boson…
Within composite Higgs models based on the top seesaw mechanism, we show that the Higgs field can arise as the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson of the broken U(3)_L chiral symmetry associated with a vector-like quark and the t-b doublet. As a…
The critical values for the mass of the Higgs bosons, at which the theory becomes strongly interacting, are calculated using the equivalence theorem, at high energies this allows us to replace the longitudinally polarized gauge bosons in…
The minimal supersymmetric standard model, and extensions, predicts a relatively light higgs particle if one supposes perturbativity until high scales. That fact is in conflict with nowadays data coming from LEPII fruitless searches for the…
A scheme of neutrino mass generation is proposed by [arXiv:2003.12069], in which the small nonzero neutrino masses come from nonzero vacuum expectation value (VEV) of the charged Higgs field in the Higgs doublet in the Standard Model of…
One of the greatest unsolved issues of the physics of this century is to find a quantum field theory of gravity. According to a vast amount of literature unification of quantum field theory and gravitation requires a gauge theory of gravity…
We explore a novel way of deriving the effective Higgs Lagrangian from strongly interacting vector-like gauge theories. We consider the N=1 supersymmetric extension of gauge theories and interpret the auxiliary field associated with the low…
A rigid body accelerated through an inviscid, incompressible fluid appears to gain mass, which is encoded in an added mass tensor. Swimmers, air bubbles, submarines and airships are slowed down by the associated `added mass' force…
In theories with no fundamental scalars, one gauge group can become strong at a large scale Lambda and spontaneously break a global symmetry, producing the Higgs and the axion as composite pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons. We show how KSVZ and…
A massive vector gauge theory constructed from the matrix derivative approach of noncommutative geometry is compared with the Higgs-Connes-Lott theory. In the massive vector gauge theory, a new extra shift-like symmetry which is due to the…
Results are presented for the search for invisible Higgs boson production using the full LHC dataset corresponding to integrated luminosity of 5.1 fb^-1 and 19.6 fb^-1 of proton-proton collision data at sqrt(s)= 7 TeV and 8 TeV…
The gauge-Higgs unification theory identifies the zero mode of the extra dimensional component of the gauge field as the usual Higgs doublet. Since this degree of freedom is the Wilson line phase, the Higgs does not have the mass term nor…
The Higgs boson, recently discovered with a mass of 125.09$\pm$0.24 GeV is known to mediate the masses of elementary particles, but only 2% of the mass of the nucleon. Extending a previous investigation [1] and including the strange-quark…
A possible discovery of a relatively light charged Higgs boson H^+ in near future experiments, with a mass M_{H+} ~< 110 GeV, together with the present LEP2 direct limits on the chargino and neutral Higgs sectors, would disfavour the…
