The dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking of the Standard Model triggered by a top quark condensate (induced by an effective strong interaction, associated with a highenergy scale, of the form [Formula: see text]) usually requires an embarrassingly large top quark mass. A suggestion that this problem could be avoided through the introduction of an additional interaction [Formula: see text] (where [Formula: see text] are SU(3)c generators á la Okubo) is analyzed using the renormalization group approach. The mass of the top quark and the concomitant emergence of colored composite bosons is discussed.

Weak Doublet

We introduce a toy model implementing the proposal of using a custodial symmetry to protect the [Formula: see text] coupling from large corrections. This "doublet-extended standard model" adds a weak doublet of fermions (including a heavy partner of the top quark) to the particle content of the standard model in order to implement an O(4) × U(1)X ~ SU(2)L × SU(2)R × PLR × U(1)X symmetry in the top-quark mass generating sector. This symmetry is softly broken to the gauged SU(2)L × U(1)Y electroweak symmetry by a Dirac mass M for the new doublet; adjusting the value of M allows us to explore the range of possibilities between the O(4)-symmetric (M → 0) and standard-model-like (M → ∞) limits.

A topcolor model is presented that contains both composite and fundamental scalar fields. Strong dynamics accounts for most of the top quark mass and part of the electroweak symmetry breaking scale. The fundamental scalar is weakly coupled and transmits its share of electroweak symmetry breaking to the light fermions. The model is allowed by the current experimental bounds, and can give a potentially large contribution to [Formula: see text] mixing.

The prospects for discovering Higgs particles and studying their fundamental properties at future high-energy electron-positron and hadron colliders are reviewed. Both the Standard Model Higgs boson and the Higgs particles of its minimal supersymmetric extension are discussed. We update various results by taking into account the new value of the top-quark mass obtained by the CDF Collaboration, and by including radiative corrections, some of which have been calculated only recently.

The LHC (Large Hadron Collider) will be a top-quark factory. With 80 million pairs of top quarks and an additional 34 million single tops produced annually at the designed high luminosity, the properties of this particle will be studied to a great accuracy. The fact that the top quark is the heaviest elementary particle in the Standard Model with a mass right at the electroweak scale makes it tempting to contemplate its role in electroweak symmetry breaking, as well as its potential as a window to unknown new physics at the TeV scale. We summarize the expectations for top-quark physics at the LHC, and outline new physics scenarios in which the top quark is crucially involved.

Abstract Grand gauge-Higgs unification of 5D $SU(6)$ gauge theory on an orbifold $S^1/Z_2$ is discussed. The Standard Model (SM) fermions are introduced on one of the boundaries and some massive bulk fields are also introduced so that they couple to the SM fermions through the mass terms on the boundary. Integrating out the bulk fields generates SM fermion masses with exponentially small bulk mass dependences. The SM fermion masses except for the top quark are shown to be reproduced by mild tuning of the bulk masses. The one-loop Higgs potential is calculated and it is shown that electroweak symmetry breaking occurs by introducing additional bulk fields. The Higgs boson mass is also computed.

I review the history of the unification of gauge couplings of the Standard Model. I start by recalling the history of the most important prediction of low-energy supersymmetry: the correct prediction of the weak mixing angle tied to the prediction of a large top quark mass. I then turn to the discussion of the present day situation of the minimal supersymmetric Grand Unified Theories based on SU(5) and SO(10) groups. For the sake of completeness I also summarize the problems and possible solution of the minimal ordinary SU(5).

Abstract There are indications that an asymptotically safe UV completion of the Standard Model with gravity could constrain the Higgs self-coupling, resulting in a prediction of the Higgs mass close to the vacuum stability bound in the Standard Model. The predicted value depends on the top quark mass and comes out somewhat higher than the experimental value if the current central value for the top quark mass is assumed. Beyond the Standard Model, the predicted value also depends on dark fields coupled through a Higgs portal. Here we study the Higgs self-coupling in a toy model of the Standard Model with quantum gravity that we extend by a dark scalar and fermion. Within the approximations used in [1], there is a single free parameter in the asymptotically safe dark sector, as a function of which the predicted (toy model) Higgs mass can be lowered due to mixing effects if the dark sector undergoes spontaneous symmetry breaking.

Rule Out

The experimental value of the ρ parameter is used to obtain an upper limit on the top-quark mass (mt) in models with extended gauge sectors. This limit is found to be generally stronger than that obtained from similar considerations in the Standard Model (SM). This bound, however, is shown to depend strongly on the particular extension of the usual SM gauge sector under consideration. Improved experimental lower limits on mt can also be used to rule out large regions of the parameter space of extended electroweak models.
