Triviality and the Higgs mass lower bound
نویسنده
چکیده
In the minimal Standard Model, it is commonly believed that the Higgs mass cannot be too small, otherwise Top quark dynamics makes the Higgs potential unstable. Although this Higgs mass lower bound is relevant for current phenomenology, we show that the Higgs vacuum instability in fact does not exist and only appears when treating incorrectly the cut-off in the renormalization of a trivial theory. We also demonstrate how to calculate correctly the regulator-dependent Higgs mass lower bound.

Triviality bounds in the next to minimal supersymmetric standard model.
We study the implications of the triviality problem for the Higgs masses and other relevant parameters in the Next to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM). By means of triviality, a new way to constrain parameters is proposed, and therefore we are able to derive triviality bounds on the heaviest-Higgs mass, the lightest-Higgs mass, the soft SUSY-breaking parameters, and the vacuum expe...
متن کاملBounds on the Higgs-boson mass in the presence of nonstandard interactions.
The triviality and vacuum stability bounds on the Higgs-boson mass are derived in the presence of weakly coupled new interactions parametrized in a model-independent way by an effective Lagrangian. When the scale of new physics Lambda is below 50 TeV the triviality bound is unchanged but the stability lower bound is increased by 40-60 GeV if the effective Lagrangian parameters are O(1) at the s...

Abstarct In this paper we study how the triviality bound on higgs mass in the context of the SM is modified by a light stabilized radion of the Goldberger-Wise variety. Our approach is inherently perturbative. Including the radion contribution to β(λ) and β(gt) to one loop we evolve the higgs self coupling λ from the cut off Λ(= 〈φ〉) down to the EW scale μ0 = v. The triviality bound is obtained...
متن کاملFlavor Physics and the Triviality Bound on the Higgs Mass
The triviality of the scalar sector of the standard one-doublet Higgs model implies that this model is only an effective low-energy theory valid below some cut-off scale Λ. The underlying high-energy theory must include flavor dynamics at a scale of order Λ or greater in order to give rise to the different Yukawa couplings of the Higgs to ordinary fermions. This flavor dynamics will generically...
متن کاملTriviality and Vacuum Stability Bounds on the Higgs Boson Mass beyond the Standard Model
The triviality and vacuum stability bounds on the Higgs-boson mass were revisited in presence of weakly-coupled new interactions parameterized in a model-independent way by effective operators of dimension 6. It was shown that for the scale of new physics in the region Λ ≃ .5 ÷ 50 TeV the Standard Model triviality upper bound remains unmodified whereas it is natural to expect that the lower bou...
