Top quark, heavy fermions and the composite Higgs boson

We study the properties of heavy fermions in the vector-like representation of the electro-weak gauge group $SU(2)_W\times U(1)_Y$ with Yukawa couplings to the standard model Higgs boson. Applying the renormalization group analysis, we discuss the effects of heavy fermions to the vacuum stability bound and the triviality bound on the mass of the Higgs boson. We also discuss the interesting possibility that the Higgs particle is composed of the top quark and heavy fermions. The bound on the composite Higgs mass is estimated using the method of Bardeen, Hill and Lindner, 150GeV$\leq m_H\leq$ 450GeV.Comment: 10 pages and 6 figures.

Some Remarks on Exotic Resonances

Using large $N_c$ counting rule, it is argued that tetra-quark resonances do not exist. Also it is pointed out that there exists the violation of exchange degeneracy in the exotic $KN$ scattering channel. It implies either the failure of resonance saturation assumption or it suggests the existence of exotic baryon resonances in such a channel.Comment: Talk given at 10th International Symposium on Meson-Nucleon Physics and the Structure of the Nucleon (MENU 2004), Beijing, China, 29 Aug - 4 Sep 200

A Numerical Analysis to the {π\pi} and {K} Coupled--Channel Scalar Form-factor

A numerical analysis to the scalar form-factor in the $\pi\pi$ and KK coupled--channel system is made by solving the coupled-channel dispersive integral equations, using the iteration method. The solutions are found not unique. Physical application to the $\pi\pi$ central production in the $pp\to pp\pi\pi$ process is discussed based upon the numerical solutions we found.Comment: 8 pages, Latex, 3 figures.

Some Remarks on the Final State Interactions in B→πKB\to \pi K Decays

Careful discussions are made on some points which are met in studying B decay final state interactions, taking the $B^0\to \pi^+ K^-$ process as an example. We point out that $\pi$--exchange rescatterings are not important, whereas for $D^*$ and $D^{**}$ exchanges, since the $B^0\to D^+D_s^-$ decay has a large branching ratio their contributions may be large enough to enhance the $B\to \pi K$ branching ratio significantly. However our estimates fail to predict a large enhancement.Comment: 5 pages, use elsart.sty; The previous version is erroneous in explaining the "charm peguin" effects. No large enhancement to $B\to \pi K$ is found through $D^+D_s^-$ intermediate stat

Enhanced Eye Diagram Estimation Method for Nonlinear Systems With Input Jitter

An enhanced multiple-edge response (MER) based eye diagram estimation method is proposed to evaluate the performance of nonlinear systems with input jitter. Compared with existing MER-based methods which only took into account the bit effect, the proposed method first determines both orders of bit effect and jitter effect. These decided orders can affirm the necessary MERs. Subsequently, the proposed method figures out the minimal number of sampling points so that the necessary MERs can be recovered quickly based on the Nyquist theory and can be used to create eye diagrams. Lastly, the eye diagrams and their parameters are compared with those generated by traditional transient simulation and an existing MER-based method which introduces input jitter through a convolution process. The result indicates that this enhanced method is more accurate than the existing MER-based method.Comment: The article was accepted but not published by EMC+SIPI 2023 because of failure to attend the conference for personal emergency reason.

FINAL STATE INTERACTIONS OF B→DKB\to DK DECAYS

We study the final state strong interactions of the $B\rightarrow DK$ decay processes, using the Regge model. We conclude that the final state interaction phases are very small, typically a few degrees. Neglecting final state interactions in obtaining the weak decay amplitudes is a good approximation.Comment: 10 pages, standard latex without figure

A Renormalization Group Analysis of the Higgs Boson with Heavy Fermions and Compositeness

We study the properties of heavy fermions in the vector-like representation of the electro-weak gauge group $SU(2)_W\times U(1)_Y$ with Yukawa couplings to the standard model (SM) Higgs boson. Using the renormalization group analysis, we discuss their effects on the vacuum stability and the triviality bound on the Higgs self-coupling, within the context of the standard model (i.e., the Higgs particle is elementary). Contrary to the low energy case where the decoupling theorem dictates their behavior, the inclusion of heavy fermions drastically change the SM structure at high scale. We also discuss the interesting possibility of compositeness, i.e., the Higgs particle is composed of the heavy fermions using the method of Bardeen, Hill and Lindner~\cite{BHL91}. Finally we briefly comment on their possible role in explaining $R_b$ and $R_c$.Comment: Some typographic errors are corrected and title is changed.
