Two recently proposed approaches to the study of the electroweak phase transition are discussed.
We develop a method for the construction of the effective potential at high temperatures based on the effective field theory approach and renormalization group. It allows one to sum up the leading logarithms in all orders of perturbation…
The consecutive integration over the distinct mass scales ${\cal O}(T),{\cal O}(gT)$ leads to a hierarchy of effective models for the electroweak phase transition. Different techniques for the realisation of such strategy are reviewed.…
A quantitative discussion of nonperturbative effects for the high temperature electroweak phase transition is presented. We propose a method for the computation of the temperature dependent effective scalar potential that takes into account…
To realize first-order electroweak phase transition, it is necessary to generate a barrier in the thermal Higgs potential, which is usually triggered by scalar degree of freedom. We instead investigate phase transition patterns in pure…
We study the electroweak phase transition in the minimal extension of the Standard Model: an extra complex singlet with zero vacuum expectation value. The first-order phase transition is strengthened by the cubic term triggered in the…
The electroweak phase transition is studied at finite temperature. The effective action is given to higher orders, including wave function correction factors and the full $g^4,\lambda^2$ effective potential. An upper bound for the Higgs…
We study first-order electroweak phase transitions in the real-singlet extended Standard Model, for which non-zero mixing between the Higgs and the singlet can efficiently strengthen the transitions. We perform large-scale parameter space…
We calculate contributions to the finite temperature effective action for the electroweak phase transition (EWPT) at $\O(g^4)$, {\it i.e.} at second order in $(g^2 T/\M)$ and all orders in $(g^2 T^2/\M^2)$. This requires plasma-mass…
We construct the effective potential for a QCD-like theory using the auxiliary field method. The chiral phase transition exhibited by the model at finite temperature and the quark chemical potential is studied from the viewpoint of the…
We propose a method to determine the effective potential of QCD from the gap equation, by introducing the homotopy method between the solutions of the equation of motion. Via this method, the effective potential beyond the bare vertex…
The effective potential is a widely used phenomenological tool to investigate phase transitions occurring in the early Universe at finite temperature. In the standard perturbative treatment the potential becomes complex in some region of…
The problem of calculating the effective potential for a real scalar field with a double--well potential is a possible preliminary to understanding symmetry breaking phase transitions in the early universe. It is argued here that it is…
In a series of two papers, we make a comparative analysis of the performance of conventional perturbation theory to analyze electroweak phase transition in the real triplet extension of Standard Model ($\Sigma$SM). In Part I (this paper),…
We report on an investigation of various problems related to the theory of the electroweak phase transition. This includes a determination of the nature of the phase transition, a discussion of the possible role of higher order radiative…
We investigate the electroweak phase transition in the real-singlet extension of the Standard Model at two-loop level, building upon existing one-loop studies. We calculate the effective potential in the high-temperature approximation and…
The electroweak phase transition broke the electroweak symmetry. Perturbative methods used to calculate observables related to this phase transition suffer from severe problems such as gauge dependence, infrared divergences, and a breakdown…
Guided by previous non-perturbative lattice simulations of a two-step electroweak phase transition, we reformulate the perturbative analysis of equilibrium thermodynamics for generic cosmological phase transitions in terms of effective…
The effective potential obtained by loop expansion is usually not real in the range of field values explored by its minima during a phase transition. We apply the optimized perturbation theory in a fixed gauge to singlet scalar extensions…
Making use of a dimensionally-reduced effective theory at high temperature, we perform a nonperturbative study of the electroweak phase transition in the Two Higgs Doublet model. We focus on two phenomenologically allowed points in the…
