Higgs mass naturalness and scale invariance in the ultraviolet

Higgs mass naturalness and scale invariance in the ultraviolet

It has been suggested that electroweak symmetry breaking in the standard model may be natural if the standard model merges into a conformal field theory (CFT) at short distances. In such a scenario the Higgs mass would be protected from quantum corrections by the scale invariance of the CFT\ifmmode \dot{I}\else …
