Description

Recently a method of constructing the non-linear sigma model using only the infrared information is developed. The infrared construction utilizes the unbroken symmetry and the Adler’s zero condition as the only input, resulting in a universal Lagrangian for different symmetry breaking patterns. This implies that the interaction of Higgs bosons in composite Higgs models is universal, where the Higgs bosons act as Nambu-Goldstone bosons resulting from spontaneous symmetry breaking. In this talk I describe how the universal Lagrangian of composite Higgs models is constructed, as well as how such a Lagrangian is gauged
