The cosmological constant and stability of the Higgs vacuum
Steven D. Bass
TL;DR
This paper explores the link between the cosmological constant problem and the stability of the Higgs vacuum, proposing that new ultraviolet phenomena near the Planck scale could provide insights.
Contribution
It introduces a novel perspective connecting the cosmological constant puzzle with Higgs vacuum stability through critical phenomena at high energies.
Findings
Proposes a connection between the cosmological constant and Higgs vacuum stability.
Suggests new critical phenomena in the ultraviolet near the Planck scale.
Links recent LHC results to theoretical stability considerations.
Abstract
We discuss the cosmological constant puzzle and possible connections to the (meta-)stability of the Higgs vacuum suggested by recent LHC results. A possible explanation involves new critical phenomena in the ultraviolet, close to the Planck scale.
