Vacuum Tunneling and Periodic Structure in Lattice Higgs Models
Using a geometric definition for the lattice Chern-Simons term in even dimensions, we have studied the distribution of Chern-Simons numbers for the 2d-U(1) and the 4d-SU(2) lattice Higgs models. The periodic structure of the distributions is preserved in our lattice formulation and has been examined in detail. In both cases the finite size effects visible in the distribution of Chern-Simons num...
متن کاملVacuum Stability in two-Higgs doublet models
In this work we review the status of tree-level vacuum stability in general two-Higgs doublet models. We also discuss the problem of Normal minima in some classes of potentials. In some of these potentials, Normal minima can coexist leading to potentially dangerous physic scenarios as, for instance, a two step spontaneous symmetry breaking.
متن کاملVacuum structure and dynamical symmetry breaking in gauge-Higgs unification models
We study the vacuum structure and dynamical symmetry breaking in the gaugeHiggs unification of the 5D theory compactified on an orbifold, S/Z2. This theory identifies Wilson line degrees of freedoms as “Higgs doublets”. We consider SU(3)c × SU(3)W and SU(6) models with the compactification scale of order a few TeV. The gauge symmetries are reduced to SU(3)c × SU(2)L × U(1)Y and SU(3)c × SU(2)L ...
متن کاملA THEORY OF VACUUM TUNNELING MICROSCOPY1
A theory for tunneling between a real surface and a model probe tip, applicable to the "scanning tunneling microscope" is presented. The tunneling current is found to be proportional to the local density of states of the surface, at the position of the tip. It can be shown that the tunneling conductance has exponential dependence on the distance of the nearest approach to the surface
