Marc Sher

TLDR
In this article, the method of calculating radiative corrections to the scalar potentials is reviewed, with an emphasis on renormalization group improvement of the potential, and the results are then applied to the standard model to derive stringent bounds on Higgs and fermion passes.

Searching for Higgs : From LEP towards LHC

TL;DR: In this article, the experimental searches for Higgs particles are summarized, from bounds at LEP to inferences for LHC, and some central results on extended Higgs systems, as conjectured for example in supersymmetric theories, are also recapitulated.

Various perspectives of Two Higgs Doublet models and Naturalness criteria

TL;DR: In this article, the implication of a criterion of naturalness for a broad class of two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs) was studied, in particular the cancellation of quadratic divergences in what are called the type I, type II, lepton-specific and flipped 2HDMs.

Gravity and the stability of the Higgs sector

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of a strong gravitational field on the structure of the Higgs effective potential in the top-Higgs sector of the Standard Model with an additional scalar singlet was investigated.

Phase Transition in Gauge Theories and Multiple Point Model

TL;DR: In this article, the phase transition in the regularized U(1) gauge theory was investigated using the dual Abelian Higgs model of scalar monopoles, and it was shown that the critical value of the renormalized electric fine structure constant (α = 0.208$ ) coincides with the lattice result for compact QED.

Exact One Loop Running Couplings in the Standard Model

TL;DR: In this paper, the dominant couplings in the standard model were taken to be the quartic scalar coupling, the Yukawa coupling of the top quark, and the SU(3) gauge coupling.

Inflationary universe: A possible solution to the horizon and flatness problems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a model of hot big-bang cosmology where the early universe is assumed to be highly homogeneous, in spite of the fact that separated regions were causally disconnected (horizon problem).

Quantum Field Theory

TL;DR: In this article, a modern pedagogic introduction to the ideas and techniques of quantum field theory is presented, with a brief overview of particle physics and a survey of relativistic wave equations and Lagrangian methods.

CP Conservation in the Presence of Pseudoparticles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors give an explanation of the conservation of strong interactions which includes the effects of pseudoparticles, and they find it is a natural result for any theory where at least one flavor of fermion acquires its mass through a Yukawa coupling to a scalar field which has nonvanishing vacuum expectation value.

CP Violation in the Renormalizable Theory of Weak Interaction

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that no CP-violating interactions exist in the quartet scheme without introducing any other new fields, and that the strong interaction must be chiral SU ( 4) X SU( 4) invariant as precisely as the conservation of the third component of the iso-spin.

A new inflationary universe scenario: A possible solution of the horizon, flatness, homogeneity, isotropy and primordial monopole problems

TL;DR: A new inflationary universe scenario is suggested in this paper, which is free of the shortcomings of the previous one and provides a possible solution of the horizon, flatness, homogeneity and isotropy problems in cosmology.
