The properties of the recently discovered Higgs boson together with the absence of new
physics at collider experiments allows us to speculate about consistently extending the …

Scalar fields have played an important role in the development of the fundamental theories
of physics as well as in other branches of physics such as gravitation and cosmology. For a …

The observed value of the Higgs boson mass indicates that the Higgs potential becomes
small and flat at the scale around 10 17 GeV. Having this fact in mind, we reconsider the …

We study the production of primordial black hole (PBH) dark matter in the case when the
Standard Model Higgs coupled non-minimally to gravity is the inflaton. PBHs can be …

We compare Higgs inflation in the metric and Palatini formulations of general relativity, with
loop corrections treated in a simple approximation. We consider Higgs inflation on the …

We investigate whether Higgs inflation can occur in the Standard Model starting from natural
initial conditions or not. The Higgs has a non-minimal coupling to the Ricci scalar. We …

We study the fixed-point structure of the Higgs–Yukawa model, with its scalar being non-
minimally coupled to the asymptotically safe gravity, using the functional renormalization …

The observed Higgs mass MH= 125.9±0.4 GeV leads to the criticality of the standard model,
that is, the Higgs potential becomes flat around the scale 1 0 17–18 GeV for the top mass …

A bstract The Type II Seesaw Mechanism provides a minimal framework to explain the
neutrino masses involving the introduction of a single triplet Higgs to the Standard Model …

We review (and extend) the analysis of general theories of all interactions (gravity included)
where the mass scales are due to dimensional transmutation. Quantum consistency requires …
