Marc Sher
- 01 Aug 1989 - 
- Vol. 179, pp 273-418
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.

Traces on orbifolds: Anomalies and one-loop amplitudes

TL;DR: In this article, a general description of one-loop computations for a large class of orbifold models is given, which can be applied to non-prime as well as non-Abelian orbifolds.

O($N$) Invariance of the Multi-Field Bounce

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if a solution of the reduced problem exists, then it and the minimum action bounce derived from it are indeed O(N$) symmetric.

Cosmological implications of Higgs near-criticality.

TL;DR: The Standard Model electroweak vacuum, in the absence of new physics below the Planck scale, lies very close to the boundary between stability and metastability, with the last option being the most probable.

Unique determination of the effective potential in terms of renormalization group functions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the perturbative effective potential of the Coleman-Weinberg renormalization condition with a global O(n)-symmetric condition for the massless version of QED with two couplings, and explicitly derived the leading-and subsequent-to-leading-logarithm contributions.

Single Higgs production in association with a photon at electron-positron colliders in extended Higgs models

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied associated Higgs production with a photon at electron-positron colliders, and they found that charged scalars can give considerable contributions to both the production and the decay if their masses are around 100 GeV.

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.
