CP-odd Higgs boson production in eγ collisions
We investigate the CP-odd Higgs boson production via two-photon processes in eγ collisions. The CP-odd Higgs boson, which we denote as A0, is expected to appear in the Two-Higgs Doublet Models (2HDM) as a minimal extension of Higgs sector for which the ...

Contingent Prizes in Dynamic Contests
ABSTRACT Firms and government agencies increasingly use online contests to find solutions to problems. These contests allow players to make multiple attempts, and their progress is tracked on a real‐time public leaderboard. Although the contests are dynamic, contest sponsors miss the opportunity to dynamically shape players' incentives, as they award ...

Higgs Boson theory and phenomenology [PDF]
Precision electroweak data presently favors a weakly-coupled Higgs sector as the mechanism responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking. Low-energy supersymmetry provides a natural framework for weakly-coupled elementary scalars. In this review, we summarize the theoretical properties of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson and the Higgs sector of the ...

A 96 GeV Higgs boson in the N2HDM
We discuss a $$\sim 3\,\sigma $$ ∼3σ signal (local) in the light Higgs-boson search in the diphoton decay mode at $$\sim 96 \,\, \mathrm {GeV}$$ ∼96GeV as reported by CMS, together with a $$\sim 2\,\sigma $$ ∼2σ excess (local) in the $$b {{\bar{b}}}$$ bb¯

Abstract The unification of conformal and fuzzy gravities with internal interactions is based on the facts that i) the tangent group of a curved manifold and the manifold itself do not necessarily have the same dimensions and ii) both gravitational theories considered here have been formulated in a gauge theoretic way.

A Phenomenological Profile of the Higgs Boson [PDF]
A discussion is given of the production, decay and observability of the scalar Higgs boson H expected in gauge theories of the weak and electromagnetic interactions such as the Weinberg-Salam model. After reviewing previous experimental limits on the mass of the Higgs boson, we give a speculative cosmological argument for a small mass.

Signature of pseudo Nambu–Goldstone Higgs boson in its decay
If the Higgs boson is a pseudo Nambu–Goldstone boson (PNGB), the hZγ contact interaction induced by the O(p4) invariants of the non-linear sigma model is free from its nonlinearity effects.

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra
Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

Limits on a Composite Higgs Boson [PDF]
Precision electroweak data are generally believed to constrain the Higgs boson mass to lie below approximately 190 GeV at 95% confidence level. The standard Higgs model is, however, trivial and can only be an effective field theory valid below some high energy scale characteristic of the underlying non-trivial physics.
