We study Higgs condensation in the top-mode standard model at the next-to-leading (NTL) order in 1/Nc, by calculating the effective potential as a function of a hard mass term of the top quark. We include the effects of the top and bottom…

We study a minimal framework that naturally yields viable Dark Matter, a strong first-order electroweak phase transition and low-scale resonant leptogenesis. Augmenting the Standard Model with three heavy Majorana neutrinos, we study the…
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…
Recently, it has been argued that in the supersymmetric extension of the seesaw-extended Standard Model, heavy right-handed neutrinos and sneutrinos may give corrections as large as a few GeV to the mass of the lightest neutral CP-even…
We present a realization of the idea that the Higgs boson is mainly a bound state of neutrinos induced by strong four-fermion interactions. The conflicts of this idea with the measured values of the top quark and Higgs boson masses are…

The problems of Standard Model as well as questions related to Higgs boson properties led to the need for modeling of ttH associated production and Higgs boson decay to top quark pair within the MSSM model. With the help of computer…
The Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model provides a solution to the hierarchy problem and leads to the presence of a light Higgs. A Higgs boson with mass above the present experimental bound may only be obtained for…

In any gauge model with spontaneous symmetry breakdown the gauge boson masses and their mixings are not independent quantities. They are interconnected through the vacuum expectation values (VEVs) of the Higgs sector. We discuss the…
The discovery of a light Higgs boson means that whatever form new physics takes, it should keep stable the Higgs mass. Besides the well-known solutions to the naturalness problem (Supersymmetry, Conformal symmetry, Compositeness, etc),…
Electroweak precision measurements can provide indirect information about the possible scale of supersymmetry already at the present level of accuracy. We update the present-day sensitivities of precision data using the new experimental…
In this paper we have considered the possibility that the Standard Model, and its minimal extension with the addition of singlets, merges with a high-scale supersymmetric theory at a scale satisfying the Veltman condition and therefore with…
We consider the Higgs boson mass in a class of the UMSSM models in which the MSSM gauge group is extended by an additional U(1)' group. Implementing the universal boundary conditions at the GUT scale we target phenomenologically interesting…
Many extensions of the Standard Model involve two Higgs doublet fields to break the electroweak symmetry, leading to the existence of three neutral and two charged Higgs particles. In particular, this is the case of the Minimal…

The standard-model can be equivalently represented with its fields in a spin-extended basis, departing from fermion degrees of freedom. The common Higgs operator connects the electroweak and Yukawa sectors, restricting the top and bottom…
We present a comparative and systematic study of the fine tuning in Higgs sectors in three scale-invariant NMSSM models: the first being the standard $Z_3$-invariant NMSSM; the second is the NMSSM plus additional matter filling…
