We study the corrections to the scalar boson mass in an abelian Higgs model by considering the global properties of the partition function. We find that although the two point function for the Higgs boson receives quantum corrections, the…
It is proposed to replace the Higgs boson of the standard model by a Lorentz- and gauge-invariant combination of SU(2) gauge bosons. A pair of Higgs bosons is identified with pairs of gauge bosons by setting their mass Lagrangians equal to…
A recent calculation of the multi-Higgs boson production in scalar theories with spontaneous symmetry breaking has demonstrated the fast growth of the cross section with the Higgs multiplicity at sufficiently large energies, called…
The discovery of the Higgs boson by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations allowed us to precisely determine its mass being 125.09 $\pm$ 0.24GeV. This value is intriguing as it lies at the frontier between the regions of stability and…
The discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider marked a significant milestone in particle physics. The Higgs mechanism, a key theoretical framework, provides profound insights into the origin of particle masses and the…
Old and new ideas regarding Higgs physics are reviewed. We first summarize the quadratic divergence / hierarchy problem which strongly suggests that the SM Higgs sector will be supplemented by new physics at high scales. We next consider…
The mass of the Higgs boson in the Split Supersymmetric Standard Model is calculated, including all one-loop threshold effects and the renormalization group evolution of the Higgs quartic coupling through two-loops. The two-loop corrections…
The hierarchy problem is investigated in the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ Two Higgs Doublet extension of the Standard Model. From the quadratic divergences of the Higgs field propagators fine-tuning constraints are extracted and solved. This leads to the…
Composite Higgs models provide an elegant solution to the hierarchy problem present in the Standard Model (SM) and give an alternative pattern leading to the mechanism of Electro-Weak Symmetry Breaking (EWSB). We present an analysis of the…
The mass-generation mechanism is one of the most important problems in modern particle physics. The discovery and study of the Higgs boson would greatly contribute to the understanding and solving of this problem. One of the unknowns in the…
The present knowledge on the Higgs-like boson discovered at the LHC is summarized. The data accumulated so far are consistent with the Standard Model predictions and put interesting constraints on alternative scenarios of electroweak…
We discuss a possible scenario to solve the hierarchy problem, in which 4-dimensional bosonic fields with all possible integer spins, graviton, gauge boson and Higgs are unified in a framework of a gravity theory with extra dimensions. The…
This paper explores the argument structure of the concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the electroweak gauge theory of the Standard Model: the so-called Higgs mechanism. As commonly understood, the Higgs argument is designed to…
In supersymmetry, the Higgs quartic couplings is given by the sum in quadrature of the weak gauge couplings. This leads to the prediction of a light Higgs boson, which still holds when considering loop corrections from soft supersymmetry…
The properties of the Higgs boson discovered at the Large Hadron Collider are very well described by the Standard Model (SM). Thus, any theory that invokes an extended Higgs sector must explain why the neutral scalar observed at the LHC so…
Since the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations a lot of progress has been made in verifying the nature of this new bosonic particle. Still, questions remain as to whether this new particle is the standard…
In these lectures I briefly review the Higgs mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking and focus on the most relevant aspects of the phenomenology of the Standard Model and of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model Higgs bosons at both…
Current data from the LHC indicate that the 125 GeV Higgs boson, $H$, is either the single Higgs of the Standard Model or, to a good approximation, an "aligned Higgs". We propose that $H$ is the pseudo-Goldstone dilaton of Gildener and…
A new particle with proprieties similar to those of the Higgs boson in the Standard Model (SM) has been recently discovered. The biggest discrepancy is related to its diphoton decay, whose branching ratio seems to be around two times larger…
The idea of reduction of couplings provides a systematic procedure to search for relations among seemingly unrelated parameters of a renormalizable theory. As a consequence, such reduced theories exhibit more constrained parameter spaces.…
