Holographic models of composite Higgs in the Veneziano limit. Part II. Fermionic sector
Daniel Elander, Michele Frigerio, Marc Knecht +1
We continue our study of strongly-coupled, approximately scale-invariant gauge theories with a large number of flavours, which provide a suitable ultraviolet completion of the comp…
Holographic models of composite Higgs in the Veneziano limit. Part I. Bosonic sector
Daniel Elander, Michele Frigerio, Marc Knecht +1
We study strongly-coupled, approximately scale-invariant gauge theories, which develop a mass gap in the infrared. We argue that a large number of fermion flavours is most suitable…
Hyperscaling violation and Electroweak Symmetry Breaking
Daniel Elander, Robert Lawrance, Maurizio Piai
We consider a class of simplified models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking built in terms of their five-dimensional weakly-coupled gravity duals, in the spirit of bottom-u…
The decay constant of the holographic techni-dilaton and the 125 GeV boson
Daniel Elander, Maurizio Piai
We critically discuss the possibility that the 125 GeV boson recently discovered at the LHC is the holographic techni-dilaton, a composite state emerging from a strongly-coupled mo…
A composite light scalar, electro-weak symmetry breaking and the recent LHC searches
Daniel Elander, Maurizio Piai
We construct a model in which electro-weak symmetry breaking is induced by a strongly coupled sector, which is described in terms of a five-dimensional model in the spirit of the b…
