Description

Global and local Weyl invariant theories of scalars and gravity can generate all mass scales spontaneously, initiated by a dynamical process of “inertial spontaneous symmetry breaking” that does not involve a potential. We discuss how inflation readily occurs and how an hierarchy of mass scales may be generated and consider its stability against quantum corrections.
