F. Knechtli, N. Irges, M. Luz
TL;DR
This paper investigates a new Higgs mechanism observed in five-dimensional lattice gauge theories, comparing lattice simulations with modified perturbation theory to understand spontaneous symmetry breaking.
Contribution
It introduces a modified perturbation theory that accounts for a finite cut-off, aligning analytic results with lattice observations of symmetry breaking.
Findings
Spontaneous symmetry breaking observed in lattice simulations.
Modified perturbation theory reproduces lattice results.
Agreement between analytic and lattice approaches for SU(2).
Abstract
Spontaneous symmetry breaking has been observed in lattice simulations of five-dimensional gauge theories on an orbifold. This effect is reproduced by perturbation theory if it is modified to account for a finite cut-off. We present a comparison of lattice and analytic results for bulk gauge group SU(2).
