Higgs boson with a single generation in the bulk

Abstract

We study Higgs boson properties in a model where three fermionic families of the Standard Model arise from a single generation in (5+1) dimensions. We demonstrate that, in spite of a non-trivial background, properties of the four-dimensional Higgs particle are almost indistinguishable from those in the Standard Model. We also argue that it is more natural to have a light Higgs boson in this model.
