We construct an environmentally selected supersymmetric standard model with a single Higgs doublet, in analogy with the work of Hall and Nomura. The low energy spectrum presents only the standard model states with a single Higgs and TeV…
The fine-tuning principles are examined to predict the top-quark and Higgs-boson masses. The modification of the Veltman condition based on the compensation of vacuum energies is developed. It is implemented in the Standard Model and in its…
We compute one- and two-loop quadratic divergent contributions to the bare Higgs mass in terms of the bare couplings in the Standard Model. We approximate the bare couplings, defined at the ultraviolet cutoff scale, by the MS-bar ones at…
An interacting scalar field with largish coupling to curvature can support a distinctive inflationary universe scenario. Previously this has been discussed for the Standard Model Higgs field, treated classically or in a leading log…
The two-Higgs doublet model (2HDM) provides an excellent benchmark to study physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). In this work we discuss how the behaviour of the model at high energy scales causes it to have a scalar with properties very…
Nonperturbative triviality and vacuum stability mass bounds are obtained for the Higgs scalar and top quark degrees of freedom in the standard electroweak model using Wilson renormalization group techniques. Particular attention is given to…
Among three typical energy scales, a neutrino mass scale ($m_\nu\sim$ 0.1 eV), a GUT scale ($M_{GUT}\sim 10^{16}$ GeV), and a TeV-scale ($M_{NP}\sim 1$ TeV), there is a fascinating relation of $M_{NP}\simeq \sqrt{m_\nu\cdot M_{GUT}}$. The…
These lectures provide a concise introduction to the so-called "Beyond the Standard Model"' physics, with particular emphasis on the problem of the microscopic origin of the Higgs mass term and of the Electro-Weak symmetry breaking scale in…
We like to investigate the idea of taking as non-accidental a remarkably good agreement of our (C.D. Froggatt and myself, and also with Yasutaka Takanishi) prediction of the Higgs mass. Our modernized most simple "multiple point principle"…
Scalar tops in the supersymmetric model affect the potential of the standard model-like Higgs at the quatum level. In light of the equivalence theorem, the deviation of the potential from the standard model can be traced by longitudinal…
It is pointed out that in a wide class of models reminiscent of type-II Two-Higgs-Doublet Models (2HDM) the signal of the Higgs produced in association with a top-antitop quark pair ($tth$) and decaying into gauge bosons can be…
The status of the Higgs boson mass in the Standard Model and its supersymmetric extensions is reviewed and the perspectives of Higgs searches are discussed. The parameter space of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is analysed…
The effective potential of massless standard model (SM) is calculated up to three-loop order. The stability of the effective potential and the Higgs boson mass are investigated up to three-loop order. We found that, Higgs boson mass $m_{H}$…
We study vacuum stability of B-L extension of the Standard Model (SM) and its supersymmetric version. We show that the generation of non-vanishing neutrino masses through TeV inverse seesaw mechanism leads to a cutoff scale of SM Higgs…
Even though the Standard Model with a Higgs mass mH = 125 GeV possesses no bulk phase transition, its thermodynamics still experiences a "soft point" at temperatures around T = 160 GeV, with a deviation from ideal gas thermodynamics. Such a…
In the four-dimensional supersymmetric standard model extended with gauge singlets the lightest Higgs boson mass, $M_H$, has an important contribution proportional to the squared of the superpotential coupling $\lambda$ of singlets to Higgs…
The evolution of Standard Model gauge couplings is studied in a non-supersymmetric scenario in which the hierarchy problem is resolved by Higgs compositeness above the weak scale. It is argued that massiveness of the top quark combined with…
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 minimal supersymmetric standard model leads to precise predictions of the properties of the light Higgs boson degrees of freedom that depend on only a few relevant supersymmetry breaking parameters. In particular, there is an upper…
We establish the potential existence of natural relations between the Cabibbo angle and the quark mass ratios, in a Standard Model with one Higgs doublet and two quark generations. The argument is based on the calculation of the divergent…
