5 GHU and Its Problems A Possible Way Out Problems of GHU Models on a Flat Space Minimal realizations of GHU have common drawbacks. [Scrucca, Serone and Silvestrini (2003)] Yukawa couplings constrained by gauge and Lorentz invariance top mass too small Higgs mass below experimental bounds Too low compactification scale Some attempts to solve these problems: Large localized kinetic terms [Scrucca et al.] Unwanted distorsions of wave functions Fermions in high rank representations [Cacciapaglia et al.] Very low cut-off

18 The Universal Parameters Main Features Phenomenological Bounds Flavor-conserving new physics can be parametrized by: [e.g. Han and Skiba(2005); Grojean et al.; Cacciapaglia et al.(2006)] Universal parameters: Ŝ, T, Û, V, X, W and Y distorsion of the Z 0 couplings: C q, δε q, δε b In Our Model: Light quarks are nearly exactly localized coupling to the Z 0 unperturbed C q, δε q negligible b quark partially delocalized Z b L b L vertex modified by Mixing with the A X tower (anomaly) Mixing with fields with different SU(2) L charges δε b is negligible for 1/R 3 TeV

19 Universal parameters Introduction Main Features Phenomenological Bounds Relevant universal parameters in our model (compared to generic flat ED model [Barbieri et al. (2004)]) Ŝ = 2 ( 3 π2 α 2 = 2 ) 3 π2 α 2 W = 1 ( ( T = π 2 α 2 1 ) 3 π2 α 2 = 1 ) 3 π2 α 2 3 tan2 (θ w )π 2 α 2 Y 1 ( 3 π2 α 2 = 1 ) 3 π2 α 2 H H H H Z A X Z The large value of T is explained by the distorsion of the ρ parameter

20 EWPT fit Introduction Main Features Phenomenological Bounds Bounds % CL 600 Compatification scale 1/R 4 5 TeV mh (GeV) % CL 90 % CL / R (TeV ) Allowed Higgs masses up to 600 GeV Predictions (blue dots) The bounds can be satisfied with some tuning (O(few %)) The Higgs mass is in the range GeV

21 Summary Introduction Common problems of GHU models on 5D flat orbifolds can be solved by: breaking the SO(4, 1) Lorentz symmetry in the bulk, introducing a Z 2 mirror symmetry. In this way a realistic model has been constructed which is compatible with the EW experimental measurements. The compactification scale has a bound 1/R 4 5 TeV; the Higgs mass is predicted in the range GeV.

22 Outlook Introduction Some amount of fine-tuning is required to satisfy the EW precision tests. Is it possible to do better? Due to the mirror symmetry, the first Kaluza-Klein modes of the antiperiodic fields are stable. Can they provide a viable dark matter candidate? Find an appropriate way to introduce the flavour structure.

23 Appendices Cut-off One-loop polarization corrections for the gauge fields compared with the tree level couplings (Pauli-Villard regularization) (Λ (µ) s R) α s 1 ( ) 6 2 k t k b (Λ (5) s R) α s 1 ) (12k t + 24k b 6 2 (Λ w (µ) R) α w 6 (Λ (5) w R) α w ( ) 2 k t k b ) (12k t + 60k b 1 Λ (µ) s 6 R, ρ 2 s Λ (5) s 3ρ2 s R, 1 Λ (µ) w 5 R, 1 Λ (5) w 4 R. For k t 2 3 and k b 1 the cut-off is Λ 4 R

24 Appendices Is Our Model Really 5D? The Lorentz symmetry breaking can have a simple origin We introduce an axion-like field Φ invariant under the shift Φ Φ + 2π with periodicity conditions Φ(y + 2πR) = Φ(y) + 2π The background configuration is Φ 0 (y) = y R This generates a spontaneous symmetry breaking of the SO(4, 1)/SO(3, 1) Lorentz symmetry. The Lorentz-violating factors can be reinterpreted as α M Φ N Φ Ψγ M D N Ψ f 2 Φ

25 Appendices Fine-Tuning and Sensitivity Using the logarithmic derivative to quantify the fine-tuning [Barbieri and Giudice (1988)] C Max { log α log i } at 1/R 5 TeV one finds a fine-tuning f = 1/C O(1%) With a more refined procedure [Anderson and Castano (1995)] f = αρ(α) αρ(α) a tuning of O(10%) is found f 100% 50% 30% 10% 5% 3% 1% 0,5% 0,3% ,8 0,4 1/R (TeV)

27 The Effective Potential Appendices Contributions to the effective potential (massless fermions) periodic: V P (α) = 3k P 4 1 8π 6 R 4 n 5 cos(2πnqα) antiperiodic: V A (α) = 3k 4 A 8π 6 R 4 n=1 ( 1) n cos(2πnqα) n=1 n 5 The leading cosine term cancels out between periodic and antiperiodic contributions if they have k P = k A.
