Nonperturbative numerical lattice studies of the Higgs-Yukawa sector of the standard model with exact chiral symmetry are reviewed. In particular, we discuss bounds on the Higgs boson mass at the standard model top quark mass and in the presence of heavy fermions. We present a comprehensive study of the phase structure of the theory at weak and very strong values of the Yukawa coupling as well as at nonzero temperature.

We examine the Higgs sector of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. The requirement of perturbative unification combined with the recent LEP data on Higgs boson searches, excludes substantial regions of parameter space. We find that only 0.42 ≤ tan β≲0.76 and tan β≳1.30 are the allowed values for tan β=υ2/υ1. We also determine the absolute lower bound on the lightest Higgs mass to be ≈8 GeV. We conclude that improved lower bounds on the top quark mass and/or the standard model Higgs boson mass will impose yet more stringent constraints on the model. These results clearly favor tan β>1, in agreement with N=1 supergravity or superstring-inspired models.

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.

We argue that the present value and accuracy of MW and mt measurements tend to favor the MSSM, provided that the central values of MW and mt stay at the current values, over the SM. By speculating that a precision of order 40 MeV and 3 GeV respectively for MW and mt will be achieved at LEP2 and Tevatron, we show that the prospect for the MSSM will be further enhanced as long as the central values of MW and mt do not increase below the present values. In addition, we discuss how this scenario can constrain the Higgs boson mass and distinguish the Higgs boson of the MSSM type from that of the SM.

A model independent analysis of the most recent averages of precision electroweak data from LEP and SLD finds a 3σ deviation of the parameter Ab from the standard model prediction. The fitted value of mH shows a strong dependence on the inclusion or exclusion of b quark data, and the standard model fits have poor confidence levels of a few percent when the latter are included. The good fits obtained to lepton data, c quark data and the directly measured top quark mass, give [Formula: see text] and indicate that the Higgs boson mass is most likely less than 200 GeV.

We investigate the focus points of the renormalization group equations of the minimal supersymmetric standard model. We show that within this model the up- and down-type Higgs mass soft supersymmetry breaking parameters have focus point behavior at the electroweak scale simultaneously when appropriate conditions are fulfilled. The focus point scenario holds for large tan β. This two-focus-point scenario allows to fix the pole top-quark mass which is within the experimentally allowed interval. The main goal of this paper is the investigation of the influence of the existence of focus points on the determination of the mass of the lightest Higgs boson.

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.

Plausible interrelations between parameters of the standard model are studied. The empirical value of the top quark mass, when used in the renormalization group equations, suggests that the ratio of the color SU(3) gauge coupling g3, and the top coupling gt is independent of the renormalization scale. On the other hand, the variety of top-condensate models suggests that the Higgs self-coupling λ is proportional to [Formula: see text]. Invoking the requirement that the ratio [Formula: see text] is independent of the renormalization scale t, fixes the Higgs mass. The pole mass of the Higgs (which differs from the renormalization group mass by a few percent) is found to be ~ 154 GeV for the one-loop equations and ~ 148 GeV for the two-loop equations.

Within the standard model with three generations we fit the top quark mass mt by combining experimental information of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] mixing, CP-violation in K decay and the ratio Γ(W)/Γ(Z) extracted from [Formula: see text] collider data. We conclude that [Formula: see text] where the "systematic error" associated with theoretical ambiguities in performing the calculations is likely to be significantly larger than the quoted 10 GeV error associated with input parameters and experimental data. The anticipated value essentially guarantees the discovery of the top quark by existing experiments. Failure to discover it should force us to reconsider generally accepted calculational procedures before it signals new physics beyond the standard model. We discuss this in some detail.

It now appears phenomenologically that the third family may be essentially different from the first two. Particularly the high value of the top quark mass suggests a special role. In the standard model all three families are treated similarly [becoming exactly the same at asymptotically high energies] so I need to extend the model to accommodate the goal of a really different third family. In this article I describe one such viable extension, the 331 model which predicts bileptonic gauge bosons.

Chapter 8 deals with the apparent perching of the physical vacuum state in the universe on the edge between stability and meta-stability, at least within the standard model, in light of the mass of the recently discovered Higgs boson. Standard model calculations mapping vacuum stability as a function of Higgs boson and top quark masses are presented. The dramatic unveiling of the Higgs boson signal by the enormous detectors at the Large Hadron Collider is reviewed. Possible interpretations and implications of meta-stability, including unlikely doomsday scenarios, are discussed. The hierarchy problem is presented as a theoretical conundrum arising from the vast gap between the Higgs boson mass and the Planck mass scale at which an as-yet undeveloped theory of quantum gravity becomes essential. Various speculative theoretical approaches, including supersymmetry, to physics beyond the standard model that might address the hierarchy problem and other outstanding particle physics mysteries are mentioned.
