We solve numerically for periodic, spherically symmetric, classical solutions of SU(2)-Higgs theory in four-dimensional Euclidean space. In the limit of short periods the solutions approach tiny instanton-anti-instanton superpositions…
We study the classical dynamics of SU(2)-Higgs field theory using multiple scale perturbation theory. In the spontaneously broken phase, assuming small perturbations of the Higgs field around its vacuum expectation value, we derive a…
We describe classical solutions to the Minkowski space equations of motion of SU(2) gauge theory coupled to a Higgs field in the spatial spherical ansatz. We show how to reduce the equations to four equations for four gauge invariant…
The classical transitions between topologically distinct vacua in a SU(2)-Higgs model, using a Higgs field of mass approximately 120 GeV, is examined to probe the crossover region between the symmetric and broken phase. Assuming the Higgs…
Using the (effective) classical approximation, we compute numerically time-dependent correlation functions in the SU(2)-Higgs model around the electroweak phase transition, for $m_H \approx m_W$. The parameters of the classical model have…
We study classical dynamics in the spherical ansatz for the SU(2) gauge and Higgs fields of the electroweak Standard Model in the absence of fermions and the photon. With the Higgs boson mass equal to twice the gauge boson mass, we…
The two-dimensional U(1)-gauged Higgs model is studied on an euclidean lattice of size $L_1\times L_2$, where the temperature $T=L_2^{-1}$ is of the order of the sphaleron mass. The simulation parameters are taken from zero temperature…
We derive a set of gauge independent gap equations for Higgs boson and vector boson masses for the SU(2) Higgs model in three dimensions. The solutions can be associated with the Higgs phase and the symmetric phase, respectively. In the…
Euclidean field theory on 4-dimensional sphere is suggested for the study of high energy multiparticle production. The singular classical field configurations are found in scalar and SU(2)-gauge theories and the cross section of 2->n…
High temperature reduction of the SU(2) Higgs model is realised by partially integrating its partition function. Various approximate forms of the effective theory resulting from the integration over nonstatic fields and the static electric…
Sphalerons -- unstable static solutions of classical field equations in (d+1)-dimensional space-time -- may be viewed as euclidean solutions in d dimensions. We discuss their role in the large order asymptotics of the perturbation theory.…
The standard electroweak model is extended by means of a second Brout-Englert-Higgs-doublet. The symmetry breaking potential is chosen is such a way that (i) the Lagrangian possesses a custodial symmetry, (ii) a static, spherically…
After the discovery of the Higgs boson and the rather precise measurement of all electroweak boson's masses the local structure of the electroweak symmetry breaking potential is already quite well established. However, despite being a key…
The cooling algorithm for saddle points presented in ref. [1] is generalized to obtain static classical solutions of the SU(2)-Higgs field theory in the limit of infinite Higgs self-coupling. The sphaleron energy obtained via this algorithm…
We investigate fermion production in the background of Minkowski space solutions to the equations of motion of $SU(2)$ gauge theory spontaneously broken via the Higgs mechanism. First, we attempt to evaluate the topological charge $Q$ of…
We report the results of a numerical search for non-topological solitons in the two-Higgs standard model, characterized by the non-trivial winding, $\pi_3(S^3)$, of the relative phase of the two doublets. In a region of (weak-coupling)…
We study classical solutions in the SU(2) Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs theory. The spherically symmetric ans\"atze for all fields are given and the equations of motion are derived as a system of ordinary differential equations. The asymptotics…
The electroweak sphaleron is a static, unstable solution of the Standard Model classical field equations, representing the energy barrier between topologically distinct vacua. In this work, we present a comprehensive updated analysis of the…
The standard approach to Higgs mechanism is based on the existence of unitary gauge but, unfortunately, it does not come from a coordinate change in the configuration space of the initial model and actually defines a new dynamical system.…
Motivated by recent works on ``Higgsless theories,'' I discuss an $SU(2)_0\times SU(2)^{N}\times U(1)$ gauge theory with arbitrary bifundamental (or custodial SU(2) preserving) symmetry breaking between the gauge subgroups and with ordinary…
