If the Standard Model (SM) is an effective theory, as currently believed, it is valid up to some energy scale $\Lambda$ to which the Higgs vacuum expectation value is sensitive throughout radiative quadratic terms. The latter ones…

The ground state of an electron gas is characterized by the interparticle spacing to the effective Bohr radius ratio r_s=a/a_B*. For polarized electrons on a two dimensional square lattice with Coulomb repulsion, we study the threshold…

We present a method for finding lines of constant physics in the confinement phase of the SU(2) Higgs model on the lattice. The model is considered at finite values of the cut-off where it behaves like an effective field theory with three…

We study the strength of the electroweak phase transition in models with two light Higgs doublets and a light SU(3)_c triplet by means of lattice simulations in a dimensionally reduced effective theory. In the parameter region considered…

Electroweak baryogenesis in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model may be realized within the light stop scenario, where the right-handed stop mass remains close to the top-quark mass to allow for a sufficiently strong…

This talk reviews recent lattice results on the high $T$ electroweak phase transition. A remarkably accurate picture emerges: a) the transition is of first order for $m_H \lsim 80$GeV and vanishes for larger $m_H$; b) transition…

We analyze the critical line of $\lambda\phi^4_4$ perturbatively in the bare coupling $\lambda_0$, by setting the daisy-improved renormalized mass to zero. By comparing to lattice data, we can then quantify the relation between the…

We study the exact (one-loop) effective potential of the littlest Higgs model and determine the dependence of physical quantities, such as the vacuum expectation value v_W and mass m_h of the Higgs boson, on the fundamental parameters of…

Recently, a novel mechanism to address the hierarchy problem has been proposed \cite{Graham:2015cka}, where the hierarchy between weak scale physics and any putative `cutoff' $M$ is translated into a parametrically large field excursion for…

We present a new gauge fixing condition for the Weinberg-Salam electro-weak theory at finite temperature and density. After spontaneous symmetry breaking occurs, every unphysical term in the Lagrangian is eliminated with our gauge fixing…

The construction of an effective 3D theory at high temperatures for the MSSM as a model of electroweak baryogenesis is discussed. The analysis for a single light scalar field shows, that given the experimental constraints, there is no value…

We summarise status and recent results of the European Twisted Mass collaboration (ETMC). The collaboration has generated gauge configurations for three different values of the lattice spacing smaller or equal 0.1 fm and values of the…

The $SU(2){-}$gauged custodial two-Higgs-doublet model, which shares the same global-symmetry properties with the standard model, is studied non-perturbatively on the lattice. The additional Higgs doublet enlarges the scalar spectrum and…

We study the possibility of relaxing the cosmological bound on the Higgs mass coming from the requirement of non-erasure of the baryon asymmetry by sphalerons. After reviewing the Standard Model case we obtain this bound in two extensions…

In the first scenario, we revise the upper bound of the cutoff scale of the dimension-six potential Higgs operator required for a successful electroweak baryogenesis in the case of a modified expansion history caused by the existence of a…

For the hard-core lattice gas model defined on independent sets weighted by an activity $\lambda$, we study the critical activity $\lambda_c(\mathbb{Z}^2)$ for the uniqueness/non-uniqueness threshold on the 2-dimensional integer lattice…

We give a more precise characterisation of the end of the electroweak phase transition in the framework of the effective 3d SU(2)--Higgs lattice model than has been given before. The model has now been simulated at gauge couplings beta_G=12…

The so-called metastability bound asserts that an unnaturally small Higgs mass is a necessary condition for electroweak vacuum metastability, offering a new approach towards solving the hierarchy problem. So far, this result relies on the…

We adopt a bottom-up Effective Field Theory (EFT) approach to derive a model-independent Veltman condition to cancel the quadratic divergences in the Higgs mass. We show using the equivalence theorem that all deviations in the Higgs…

Older lattice work exploring the Higgs mass triviality bound is briefly reviewed. It indicates that a strongly interacting scalar sector in the minimal standard model cannot exist; on the other hand low energy QCD phenomenology might be…
