8 Imagine that the top and Higgs masses are measured with a precision enough to conclude that our vacuum is not completely stable... Should we abandon HI?? Should/Must new physics appear below or µ 0 at the scale? How did we end in the right EW minimum?
9 HI is non-renormalizable Quantum corrections should be introduced by interpreting the theory as an EFT in which a particular set of higher dim. operators are included but... Which set of operators? The most general approach Add all kind of Planck scale suppressed operators (in the Einstein frame) This would automatically spoil the flatness of the potential. Indeed, it would generically kill all large-field models of inflation. The poor man s or self-consistent approach 1. Add only the higher dimensional operators generated by radiative corrections ( i.e, those needed to make the theory finite at every order in PT). 2. Require the procedure to maintain the symmetries of the original theory (in particular scale invariance at large field values). This provides a (partially) controllable link between the low and high energy parameters of the model and selects a particular set of UV completions. F. Bezrukov, A. Magnin, M. Shaposhnikov, and S.

21 CONCLUSIONS The Higgs field can inflate the Universe HI provides universal predictions if the UV completion respects SI n s ' 1 2 N ' 0.97 r ' 12 N 2 ' The relation of these predictions to LE observables contains an irreducible theoretical uncertainty. UV completion? Higgs inflation can be possible even if our vacuum is metastable The HI scenario is just a particular realization of a general idea. Vacuum instability is not necessarily a problem if: The potential is modified below the scale of inflation The reheating process is efficient enough as to make the wrong minimum disappear temporally.

24 The new finite parts should be promoted to new independent coupling constants with their own RG equations... d d log µ = (, 1,...) d 1 d log µ = 1(, 1,...) dy t d log µ = y t (y t,y t1,...) dy t1 d log µ = y t1 (y t,y t1,...) but since we are dealing with a non-renormalizable theory, the set of RG equations is not closed...
25 Truncation The one-loop diagrams associated to the new counterterms are given by The two-loop contributions generated by the original Lagrangian 3. In order to have a good perturbative expansion, the finite parts must be of the same order (in power counting) than the loops producing them. O( 2,y 4 ) y O(y 3,y ) O(y 2 )
