Spontaneous Symmetry Breakdown without Massless Bosons
We examine a simple relativistic theory of two scalar fields, first discussed by Goldstone, in which as a result of spontaneous breakdown of $U(1)$ symmetry one of the scalar bo...
Derivation of gauge invariance from high-energy unitarity bounds on the<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:mi>S</mml:mi></mml:math>matrix
A systematic search is made for all renormalizable theories of heavy vector bosons. It is argued that in any renormalizable Lagrangian theory high-energy unitarity bounds should...
Weak interactions at very high energies: The role of the Higgs-boson mass
We give an $S$-matrix-theoretic demonstration that if the Higgs-boson mass exceeds ${M}_{c}={(8\ensuremath{\pi}\frac{\sqrt{2}}{3}{G}_{F})}^{\frac{1}{2}}$, parital-wave unitarity...
