Description

The observed Higgs mass indicates that its quartic coupling and beta function (and also bare mass) can simultaneously vanish around the Planck scale. Such a non-trivial behavior of the Higgs potential is called the criticality of the Standard Model. Here, we show that it can be explained based on the Coleman’s multi-local theory.
