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.

RνMDM and lepton flavor violation

TL;DR: In this paper, a model relating radiative seesaw and minimal dark matter mass scales without beyond the standard model (SM) gauge symmetry (RMDM) is constructed, which predicts an N 0 R -nucleus scattering cross section that would be accessible with future direct detection searches as well as observable effects in present and searches for charged lepton flavor violating processes, such as li → lj and µ − e conversion.

The fundamental-electroweak scale hierarchy in the standard model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used renormalization group equations for the SM to obtain the effective potential in the two-loop approximation and investigate the existence of its postulated second minimum at the fundamental scale.

125 GeV Higgs, type III seesaw and gauge–Higgs unification

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the seesaw extension of the standard model and showed that in type III seesaw, the vacuum stability bound on the Higgs mass can be as low as 125 GeV, for the sawaw scale around a TeV.

One-loop contributions to neutral minima in the inert doublet model

TL;DR: In this article, the inert doublet model is analyzed at the one-loop level using the effective potential formalism, to verify the validity of tree-level predictions for the properties of the global minimum.

Technicolor with a 125 GeV Higgs boson

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the running quartic coupling remains positive below a reasonably defined cutoff only in a narrow region of the model's parameter space, which is only slightly enlarged if one allows a metastable vacuum with a lifetime longer than the age of the universe.

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.
