Effective Description

We review developments in top condensation starting from the first example which was a simple effective Nambu–Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model. The connection between the underlying four-fermion interaction and the structure of the composite Higgs sector is generalized to obtain the scalar sectors of a number of Standard Model extensions dynamically from some NJL model, as well as to include possible radial and spin excitations of the Higgs sector. In all these NJL models the symmetries do not forbid further higher dimensional four-fermion operators. If such operators could have arbitrary strength then this would result in arbitrary Higgs and top mass predictions. The nonrenormalizable NJL model is however thought to be only an effective description of some fully consistent theory where higher dimensional operators are not free parameters so that the corresponding four-fermion operators are restricted. We discuss renormalizable gauge theories of top condensation where this is the case. These models are therefore predictive and do not lead to arbitrary predictions.

Here I summarize some of the salient features of technicolor theories with technifermions in higher dimensional representations of the technicolor gauge group. The expected phase diagram as function of number of flavors and colors for the two index (anti)symmetric representation of the gauge group is reviewed. After having constructed the simplest walking technicolor theory one can show that it is not at odds with the precision measurements. The simplest theory also requires, for consistency, a fourth family of heavy leptons. The latter may result in an interesting signature at LHC. In the case of a fourth family of leptons with ordinary lepton hypercharge the new heavy neutrino can be a natural candidate of cold dark matter. New theories will also be proposed in which the critical number of flavors needed to enter the conformal window is higher than in the one with fermions in the two-index symmetric representation, but lower than in the walking technicolor theories with fermions only in the fundamental representation of the gauge group. Due to the near conformal/chiral phase transition the composite Higgs is very light compared to the intrinsic scale of the technicolor theory. For the two technicolor theory the composite Higgs mass is predicted not to exceed 150 GeV.

The 2H model that resembles the Higgs sector of the minimal N=1 SUSY version of the standard model is considered and the contribution of the charged Higgs boson to the rate of the b→sl+l− transition is studied as a function of the free parameters MH, Mt and the squared two Higgs doublet v.e.v. ratio r. It is shown that this process can be suppressed by the charged Higgs boson contribution and that in general it is not very sensitive to its presence unless (SUSY-forbidden) values of r>1 are assumed.

The Landau-Luttinger liquid formulation is used to investigate the physics of the one-dimensional Hubbard model in a magnetic field of arbitrary strength H. The low lying charge and spin excitations are studied. A novel branch of sound wave-like spin excitations arises for H>0. The low temperature thermodynamics is considered in some detail.

Ito Equation

Abstract In this article, (2+1)-dimensional Ito equation that models waves motion on shallow water surfaces is analyzed for exact analytic solutions. Two reliable techniques involving the simplest equation and modified simplest equation algorithms are utilized to find exact solutions of the considered equation involving bright solitons, singular periodic solitons, and singular bright solitons. These solutions are also described graphically while taking suitable values of free parameters. The applied algorithms are effective and convenient in handling the solution process for Ito equation that appears in many phenomena.

In contrast to the folklore that Technicolor (TC) is a "Higgsless theory", we shall discuss existence of a composite Higgs boson, Techni-Dilaton (TD), a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson of the scale invariance in the Scale-invariant/Walking/Conformal TC (SWC TC) which generates a large anomalous dimension γm ≃ 1 in a wide region from the dynamical mass [Formula: see text] of the techni-fermion all the way up to the intrinsic scale ΛTC of the SWC TC (analogue of ΛQCD), where ΛTC is taken typically as the scale of the Extended TC scale Λ ETC : Λ TC ≃ Λ ETC ~ 103 TeV (≫ m). All the techni-hadrons have mass on the same order [Formula: see text], which in SWC TC is extremely smaller than the intrinsic scale Λ TC ≃ Λ ETC , in sharp contrast to QCD where both are of the same order. The mass of TD arises from the non-perturbative scale anomaly associated with the techni-fermion mass generation and is typically 500-600 GeV, even smaller than other techni-hadrons of the same order of [Formula: see text], in another contrast to QCD which is believed to have no scalar [Formula: see text] bound state lighter than other hadrons. We discuss the TD mass in various methods, Gauged NJL model via ladder Schwinger-Dyson (SD) equation, straightforward calculations in the ladder SD/ Bethe-Salpeter equation, and the holographic approach including techni-gluon condensate. The TD may be discovered in LHC.

Quark Models

Quark models with four-fermion interaction including derivatives of fields in the strong coupling regime are used to implement composite-Higgs extensions of the Standard Model. In this approach the dynamical breaking of chiral symmetry occurs in two (or more) channels (near polycritical values for coupling constants), giving rise to two (or more) composite Higgs doublets. Two types of models are built for which Flavor Changing Neutral Currents (FCNC) are naturally suppressed. In the first Model I the second Higgs doublet is regarded as a radial excitation of the first one. In the second Model II the quasilocal Yukawa interaction with Higgs doublets reduces at low energies to a conventional local one where each Higgs doublet couples to a definite charge current and its v.e.v. brings the mass either to up- or to down-components of fermion doublets. For the special configuration of four-fermion coupling constants the dynamical CP violation in the Higgs sector appears as a result of complexity of v.e.v. for Higgs doublets.

Abstract A holographic model of chiral symmetry breaking is used to study the dynamics plus the meson and baryon spectrum of the underlying strong dynamics in composite Higgs models. The model is inspired by top-down D-brane constructions. We introduce this model by applying it to Nf = 2 QCD. We compute meson masses, decay constants and the nucleon mass. The spectrum is improved by including higher dimensional operators to reflect the UV physics of QCD. Moving to composite Higgs models, we impose perturbative running for the anomalous dimension of the quark condensate in a variety of theories with varying number of colors and flavours. We compare our results in detail to lattice simulations for the following theories: SU(2) gauge theory with two Dirac fundamentals; Sp(4) gauge theory with fundamental and sextet matter; and SU(4) gauge theory with fundamental and sextet quarks. In each case, the holographic results are encouraging since they are close to lattice results for masses and decay constants. Moreover, our models allow us to compute additional observables not yet computed on the lattice, to relax the quenched approximation and move to the precise fermion content of more realistic composite Higgs models not possible on the lattice. We also provide a new holographic description of the top partners including their masses and structure functions. With the addition of higher dimension operators, we show the top Yukawa coupling can be made of order one, to generate the observed top mass. Finally, we predict the spectrum for the full set of models with top partners proposed by Ferretti and Karateev.

Abstract In this study, we have constructed a viable cosmological model characterized by the presence of the Gauss–Bonnet four-dimensional invariant, higher-order corrections to the low energy effective action motivated from heterotic superstring theory and a general exponential potential comparable to those obtained in higher dimensional supergravities. The field equations were studied by assuming a particular relation between the Hubble parameter and the time derivative of the scalar field. It was observed that, for specific relations between the free parameters in the theory, the universe is cyclic, expands and contracts alternately without singularity with an equation of state oscillating around −1. The model is found to fit the recent astrophysical data.
