    Electroweak Symmetry Breaking from SUSY Breaking with Bosonic See-Saw Mechanism

    Full text link
    We introduce the idea of bosonic see-saw mechanism in analogy with the see-saw mechanism. Bosonic see-saw is a new symmetry breaking mechanism and we apply it to explain electroweak symmetry breaking as an inevitable consequence of supersymmetry breaking. The breaking of electroweak symmetry occurs at tree level once supersymmetry is broken. Absence of color/charge breaking in this model is related to doublet-triplet splitting in grand unified theory. An extension of MSSM with a weak triplet shows very interesting results especially when mu =0. It provides the most natural understanding of why we have only electroweak symmetry breaking rather than having color/charge breaking. In the limit mu=0, the model predicts very light chargino mass, 104 GeV while Higgs is heavy, 130 GeV.Comment: 4 page

    New SUSY Thought

    Full text link
    New SUSY thought is presented. Maximal stop mixing needed for 125 GeV Higgs is linked to the tachyonic stop at the UV boundary. Large μ\mu does not mean the severe fine tuning if Higgs comes out as a pseudo-Goldstone boson. The small mass of the pseudo-Goldstone Higgs is overcome with extra vector-like fermions needed to explain the Higgs to di-photon rates.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, Plenary Talk given at BSM of Particle Physics 2012, Qui Nhon, Vietnam, 15-21 July 201

    A simple proof of Zeeman's theorem

    Full text link
    It is discussed that Zeeman's theorem can be directly obtained from Liouville's theorem if we assume sufficient differentiability

    A characterization of causal automorphisms on two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime

    It is shown that causal automorphisms on two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime can be characterized by the invariance of the wave equations

    Brane World in Generalized Gravity

    Full text link
    We consider Randall-Sundrum(RS) model in generalized gravities and see that the localization of gravity happens in generic situations though its effectiveness depends on the details of the configuration. It is shown that RS picture is robust against quantum gravity corrections (ϕR\phi \R) as long as the correction is reasonably small. We extend our consideration to the model of scalar(dilaton) coupled gravity which leads us to the specific comparison between RS model and inflation models. The exponential and power law hierarchy in RS model are shown to correspond to the exponential and power law inflation respectively.Comment: 10 pages, contribution to proceedings of COSMO2000, Cheju, Kore

    To be (finite) or not to be, that is the question "Kaluza-Klein contribution to the Higgs mass"

    Recently five dimensional supersymmetric models with a Scherk-Schwarz supersymmetry breaking and a localized superpotential on a fixed-point have been constructed to yield a definite prediction for the Higgs mass. We examine this issue in detail and show that the finite one loop correction and the definite prediction for the Higgs mass are just a consequence of a special "Kaluza-Klein regularization" scheme.Comment: RevTeX, 14 pages, 4 figure

    Gauge Messenger Models

    Get PDF
    We consider gauge messenger models in which X and Y gauge bosons and gauginos are messengers of supersymmetry breaking. In simple gauge messenger models, all the soft parameters except mu and Bmu are calculated in terms of a single scale parameter M_SUSY which is proportional to F/M_GUT. Unique prediction on dark matter in gauge messenger models is discussed.

    Causal and conformal structures of globally hyperbolic spacetimes

    Full text link
    The group of conformal diffeomorphisms and the group of causal automorphisms on two-dimensional globally hyperbolic spacetimes are clarified. It is shown that if spacetimes have non-compact Cauchy surfaces, then the groups are subgroups of that of two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, and if spacetimes have compact Cauchy surfaces, then the groups are subgroups of that of two-dimensional Einstein's static universe
