    A new vector dark matter (DM) scenario in the context of the gauge-Higgs
    unification (GHU) is proposed. The DM particle is identified with an
    electric-charge neutral component in an $SU(2)_L$ doublet vector field with the
    same quantum number as the Standard Model Higgs doublet. Since such an
    $SU(2)_L$ doublet vector field is incorporated in any models of the GHU
    scenario, it is always a primary and model-independent candidate for the DM in
    the scenario. The observed relic density is reproduced through a DM pair
    annihilations into the weak gauge bosons with a TeV-scale DM mass, which is
    nothing but the compactification scale of extra-dimensions. Due to the
    higher-dimensional gauge structure of the GHU scenario, a pair of the DM
    particles has no direct coupling with a single $Z$-boson/Higgs boson, so that
    the DM particle evades the severe constraint from the current direct DM search
    experiments.

    We propose a Minimal Dark Matter (MDM) scenario in the context of a simple
    gauge-Higgs Unification (GHU) model based on the gauge group SU(3) x U(1)' in
    5-dimensional Minkowski space with a compactification of the 5th dimension on
    S^1/Z_2 orbifold. A pair of vector-like SU(3) multiplet fermions in a
    higher-dimensional representation is introduced in the bulk, and the DM
    particle is identified with the lightest mass eigenstate among the components
    in the multiplets. In the original model description, the DM particle
    communicates with the Standard Model (SM) particles only through the bulk gauge
    interaction, and hence our model is the GHU version of the MDM scenario. There
    are two typical realizations of the DM particle in 4-dimensional effective
    theory: (i) the DM particle is mostly composed of the SM SU(2)_L multiplets, or
    (ii) the DM is mostly composed of the SM SU(2)_L singlets. Since the case (i)
    is very similar to the original MDM scenario, we focus on the case (ii), which
    is a realization of the Higgs-portal DM scenario in the context of the GHU
    model. We identify an allowed parameter region to be consistent with the
    current experimental constraints, which will be fully covered by the direct
    dark matter detection experiments in the near future. In the presence of the
    bulk multiplet fermions in higher-dimensional $SU(3)$ representations, we
    reproduce the 125 GeV Higgs boson mass through the renormalization group
    evolution of Higgs quartic coupling with the compactification scale of 10-100
    TeV.

    We propose a Majorana fermion dark matter in the context of a simple

    $U(1)'$ in 5-dimensional Minkowski space with a compactification of the 5th
    dimension on $S^1/Z_2$ orbifold. The dark matter particle is identified with
    the lightest mode in $SU(3)$ triplet fermions additionally introduced in the
    5-dimensional bulk. We find an allowed parameter region for the dark matter
    mass around a half of the Standard Model Higgs boson mass, which is consistent
    with the observed dark matter density and the constraint from the LUX 2016
    result for the direct dark matter search. The entire allowed region will be
    covered by, for example, the LUX-ZEPLIN dark matter experiment in the near
    future. We also show that in the presence of the bulk $SU(3)$ triplet fermions
    the 125 GeV Higgs boson mass is reproduced through the renormalization group
    evolution of Higgs quartic coupling with the compactification scale of around
    $10^8$ GeV.

    We examine trilinear gauge boson couplings (TGCs) in the context of the
    $SU(3)_W\otimes U(1)'$ gauge-Higgs unification scenario. The TGCs play
    important roles in the probes of the physics beyond the standard model, since
    they are highly restricted by the experiments. We discuss mass spectrum of the
    neutral gauge boson with brane-localized mass terms carefully and find that the
    TGCs and $\rho$ parameter may deviate from standard model predictions. Finally
    we put a constraint from these observables and discuss the possible parameter
    space.

  • Is the 126 GeV Higgs boson mass calculable in gauge-Higgs unification? 査読

    We address a question whether the recently observed Higgs mass $M_{H} = 126$
    GeV, of the order of the weak scale $M_{W}$, is calculable as a finite value in
    the scnenario of gauge-Higgs unification. In the scenario formulated on a flat
    5-dimensional space-time, the Higgs mass is calculable, being protected under
    the quantum correction by gauge invariance, though the predicted Higgs mass is
    generally too small compared with $M_{W}$. In the 6-dimensional SU(3) model,
    however, a suitable orbifolding is known to lead to a mass of the order of
    $M_{W}$: $M_{H} = 2M_{W}$ at the tree level, which has some similarity to the
    corresponding prediction by the MSSM, $M_{H}$ leq (cos beta) $M_{Z}$. We
    demonstrate first by a general argument and secondly by explicit calculations
    that, even though the quantum correction to the quartic self-coupling of the
    Higgs field is UV-divergent, its deviation from that of $g^{2}$ is calculable,
    and therefore two observables, $M_{H}^{2}$ and Delta equiv
    $(M_{H}/2M_{W})^{2}-1$, are both calculable in the gauge-Higgs unification
    scenario. The implication of the precise value 126 GeV to the compactification
    scale and the bulk mass of the matter field in our model is also discussed.

    In our previous paper, we have investigated effects of a simple gauge-Higgs
    unification model on the diphoton signal events from the Higgs boson production
    at the Large Hadron Collider. We have found that in this model the effective
    Higgs-to-diphoton coupling can be enhanced by 1-loop corrections with
    Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes of bulk fields. This result can be an explanation for
    the observed excess of the signal strength in the Higgs to diphoton decay
    channel. In this paper, we investigate KK-mode effects on another Higgs boson
    decay mode, H to Z gamma. One naturally expects that the KK modes also
    contribute to the effective H-Z-gamma coupling and can cause some deviation for
    the H to Z gamma decay mode from the Standard Model prediction. Revealing a
    correlation between the KK-mode effects on the Higgs-to-diphoton and H-Z-gamma
    couplings is an interesting topic in terms of a possibility to discriminate a
    variety of models for physics beyond the Standard Model. We show a very
    striking result for the gauge-Higgs unification model, namely, the absence of
    KK-mode contributions to the H-Z-gamma coupling at the 1-loop level. This is a
    very specific and general prediction of the gauge-Higgs unification scenario.

    We present the mechanism of the dynamical supersymmetry breaking at the
    metastable vacuum recently uncovered in the N=1 U(N) supersymmetric gauge
    theory that contains adjoint superfields and that is specified by Kahler and
    non-canonical gauge kinetic functions and a superpotential whose tree vacua
    preserve N=1 supersymmetry. The overall U(1) serves as the hidden sector and no
    messenger superfield is required. The dynamical supersymmetry breaking is
    triggered by the non-vanishing D term coupled to the observable sector, and is
    realized by the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation of the NJL type
    while it eventually brings us the non-vanishing F term as well. It is shown
    that theoretical analysis is resolved as a variational problem of the effective
    potential for three kinds of background fields, namely, the complex scalar, and
    the two order parameters D and F of supersymmetry, the last one being treated
    perturbatively. We determine the stationary point and numerically check the
    consistency of such treatment as well as the local stability of the scalar
    potential. The coupling to the N = 1 supergravity is given and the gravitino
    mass formula is derived.

    We discuss flavor mixing and resultant flavor changing neutral current rocesses in the SU(3) circle times SU(3)(color) gauge-Higgs unification scenario. To achieve flavor violation is a challenging issue in the scenario, since the Yukawa couplings are originally higher dimensional gauge interactions. We argue that the presence of Z(2)-odd bulk masses of fermions plays a crucial role as the new source of flavor violation. Although introducing brane-localized mass terms in addition to the bulk masses is necessary to realize flavor mixing, if the bulk masses were universal among generations, the flavor mixing and flavor changing neutral current processes are known to disappear. We also discuss whether natural flavor conservation is realized in the scenario. It is shown that the new source of flavor violation leads to flavor changing neutral current processes at the tree level due to the exchange of non-zero Kaluza-Klein gauge bosons. As a typical example we calculate the rate of K-0 - (K) over bar (0) mixing due to the non-zero Kaluza-Klein gluon exchange at the tree level. The obtained result for the mass difference of neutral kaon is suppressed by the inverse powers of the compactification scale. By comparing our prediction with the data we obtain the lower bound of the compactification scale as a function of one unfixed parameter of the theory, which is of O(10) TeV, except for some extreme cases. We argue that the reason to get such rather mild lower bound is the presence of "GIM-like" mechanism, which is a genuine feature of GHU scenario.

    We address the challenging issue of how CP violation is realized in higher dimensional gauge theories without higher dimensional elementary scalar fields. In such theories interactions are basically governed by a gauge principle and therefore to get CP violating phases is a nontrivial task. It is demonstrated that CP violation is achieved as the result of compactification of extra dimensions, which is incompatible with the 4-dimensional CP transformation. As a simple example we adopt a 6-dimensional U(1) model compactified on a 2-dimensional orbifold T2/Z4. We argue that the 4-dimensional CP transformation is related to the complex structure of the extra space and show how the Z4 orbifolding leads to CP violation. We confirm by explicit calculation of the interaction vertices that CP violating phases remain even after the rephasing of relevant fields. For completeness, we derive a rephasing invariant CP violating quantity, following a similar argument in the Kobayashi-Maskawa model which led to the Jarlskog parameter. As an example of a CP violating observable we briefly comment on the electric dipole moment of the electron. © 2010 The American Physical Society.

    We study the neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) in a five-dimensional SU(3) gauge-Higgs unification compactified on M4×S1/Z2 space-time including a massive fermion. We point out that to realize the CP violation is a nontrivial task in the gauge-Higgs unification scenario and argue how the CP symmetry is broken spontaneously by the vacuum expectation value of the Higgs, the extra space component of the gauge field. We emphasize the importance of the interplay between the vacuum expectation value of the Higgs and the Z2-odd bulk mass term to get physically the CP violation. We then calculate the one-loop contributions to the neutron EDM as the typical example of the CP violating observable and find that the EDM appears already at the one-loop level, without invoking the three-generation scheme. We then derive a lower bound for the compactification scale, which is around 2.6 TeV, by comparing the contribution due to the nonzero Kaluza-Klein modes with the experimental data. © 2009 The American Physical Society.

    We discuss the anomalous magnetic moment of fermion in a realistic SU(3) model of gauge-Higgs unification compactified on an orbifold S1/Z2 including Z2-odd bulk mass for fermions. An operator analysis implies that the anomalous magnetic moment should be finite and predictable, even though higher dimensional gauge theories are nonrenormalizable. Our main purpose is to clarify the cancellation mechanism of the UV divergences appearing in various types of Feynman diagrams. The cancellation of divergence turns out to take place between the contributions of the partners in the Higgs-like mechanism present in the nonzero Kaluza-Klein modes to form massive gauge bosons. It is also argued that the cancellation may be attributed to the quantum mechanical supersymmetry hidden in the scenario of gauge-Higgs unification. © 2009 The American Physical Society.

    We discuss flavor mixing and resulting Flavor Changing Neutral Current (FCNC)
    in a five dimensional SU(3)_color \otimes SU(3) \otimes U'(1) gauge-Higgs
    unification. Flavor mixing is realized by the fact that the bulk and brane
    localized mass terms are not diagonalized simultaneously. As the concrete FCNC
    processes, we calculate the rate of B^0_d-\bar B^0_d mixing and B^0_s-\bar
    B^0_s mixing due to the exchange of non-zero Kaluza-Klein gluons at the tree
    level. We obtain a lower bound on the compactification scale of order O(TeV) by

    in the SU(3) \otimes SU(3)_color gauge-Higgs unification. As the FCNC process
    we calculate the rate of D^0-\bar D^0 mixing due to the exchange of non-zero
    Kaluza-Klein gluons at the tree level. Flavor mixing is argued to be realized
    by the fact that the bulk mass term and brane localized mass term is not
    diagonalized simultaneously unless bulk masses are degenerate. It is shown that
    automatic suppression mechanism is operative for the FCNC processes of light
    quarks. We therefore obtain a lower bound on the compactification scale of
    order \cal O(TeV) by comparing our prediction on the mass difference of neutral
    D meson with the recent experimental data, which is much milder than what we
    naively expect assuming only the decoupling of non-zero Kaluza-Klein gluons.

    We discuss flavor mixing and resultant flavor changing neutral current
    processes in the SU(3) \otimes SU(3)_\text{color} gauge-Higgs unification
    scenario. To achieve flavor violation is a challenging issue in the scenario,
    since the Yukawa couplings are originally higher dimensional gauge
    interactions. We argue that the presence of Z_2-odd bulk masses of fermions
    plays a crucial role as the new source of flavor violation. Although
    introducing brane-localized mass terms in addition to the bulk masses is
    necessary to realize flavor mixing, if the bulk masses were universal among
    generations, the flavor mixing and flavor changing neutral current processes
    are known to disappear. We also discuss whether natural flavor conservation is
    realized in the scenario. It is shown that the new source of flavor violation
    leads to flavor changing neutral current processes at the tree level due to the
    exchange of non-zero Kaluza-Klein gauge bosons. As a typical example we
    calculate the rate of K^0 - \bar{K}^0 mixing due to the non-zero Kaluza-Klein
    gluon exchange at the tree level. The obtained result for the mass difference
    of neutral kaon is suppressed by the inverse powers of the compactification
    scale. By comparing our prediction with the data we obtain the lower bound of
    the compactification scale as a function of one unfixed parameter of the
    theory, which is of {\cal O}(10) TeV, except for some extreme cases. We argue
    that the reason to get such rather mild lower bound is the presence of
    "GIM-like" mechanism, which is a genuine feature of GHU scenario.

    We address the challenging issue of how CP violation is realized in higher
    dimensional gauge theories without higher dimensional elementary scalar fields.
    In such theories interactions are basically governed by a gauge principle and
    therefore to get CP violating phases is a non-trivial task. It is demonstrated
    that CP violation is achieved as the result of compactification of extra
    dimensions, which is incompatible with the 4-dimensional CP transformation. As
    a simple example we adopt a 6-dimensional U(1) model compactified on a
    2-dimensional orbifold $T^{2}/Z_{4}$. We argue that the 4-dimensional CP
    transformation is related to the complex structure of the extra space and show
    how the $Z_{4}$ orbifolding leads to CP violation. We confirm by explicit
    calculation of the interaction vertices that CP violating phases remain even
    after the re-phasing of relevant fields. For completeness, we derive a
    re-phasing invariant CP violating quantity, following a similar argument in the
    Kobayashi-Maskawa model which led to the Jarlskog parameter. As an example of a
    CP violating observable we briefly comment on the electric dipole moment of the
    electron.

    We study the neutron electric dipole moment (EDM) in a five dimensional SU(3)
    gauge-Higgs unification compactified on M^4 \times S^1/Z_2 space-time including
    a massive fermion. We point out that to realize the CP violation is a
    non-trivial task in the gauge-Higgs unification scenario and argue how the CP
    symmetry is broken spontaneously by the VEV of the Higgs, the extra space
    component of the gauge field. We emphasize the importance of the interplay
    between the VEV of the Higgs and the Z_2-odd bulk mass term to get physically
    the CP violation. We then calculate the one-loop contributions to the neutron
    EDM as the typical example of the CP violating observable and find that the EDM
    appears already at the one-loop level, without invoking to the three generation
    scheme. We then derive a lower bound for the compactification scale, which is
    around 2.6 TeV, by comparing the contribution due to the nonzero Kaluza-Klein
    modes with the experimental data.

    In this manuscript, a unified approach to hadron physics from holographic
    point of view is described. After introduction of a general setup for
    meson-nucleon system based on the bottom-up approach of QCD (AdS/QCD), as an
    illustration, we specifically examine meson-nucleon couplings. This is an
    example of the notion we call "holographic unification" in hadron physics.

    We propose a new Universal Extra Dimensional model that is defined on a
    six-dimensional spacetime which has a two-sphere orbifold $S^2/Z_2$ as an
    extra-space. We specify our model by choosing the gauge symmetry as
    SU(3)$\timesSU(2)\timesU(1)_Y \timesU(1)_X$, introducing field contents in
    six-dimensions as their zero modes correspond to the Standard model particles,
    and determining a boundary condition of these fields on orbifold $S^2/Z_2$. A
    background gauge field that belongs to U(1)$_X$ is introduced there, which is
    necessary to obtain massless chiral fermions in four-dimensional spacetime. We
    then analyze Kaluza-Klein(KK) mode expansion of the fields in our model and
    derive the mass spectrum of the KK particles. We find that the lightest KK
    particles are the 1st KK particle of massless gauge bosons at tree level. We
    also discuss the KK parity of the KK modes in our model and confirm the
    stability of the lightest KK particle which is important for dark matter
    physics.

    We show that the gluon fusion amplitude in the gauge-Higgs unification
    scenario is finite in any dimension regardless of its nonrenormalizability.
    This result is supported by the fact that the local operator describing the
    gluon fusion process is forbidden by the higher dimensional gauge invariance.
    We explicitly calculate the gluon fusion amplitude in an arbitrary dimensional
    gauge-Higgs unification model and indeed obtain the finite result.

    In this talk, we discuss an attempt to construct a realistic model of the
    grand gauge-Higgs unification. We investigate a 5D SU(6) grand gauge-Higgs
    unification model compactified on an orbifold S^1/Z_2. Ordinary quarks and
    leptons, together with right-handed neutrinos, are just accommodated into a
    minimal set of representations of the gauge group, without introducing any
    exotic states in the same representations. The proton decay turns out to be
    forbidden at least at the tree level. We also find a correct electroweak
    symmetry breaking SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y \to U(1)_{em} is easily realized by
    introducing suitable number of adjoint fermions.

    The zero mode of an extra-dimensional component of gauge potentials serves as a 4D Higgs field in the gauge-Higgs unification. We examine QED on M 4 × S1 and determine the mass and potential of a 4D Higgs field (the A5, component) at the two loop level with gauge invariant regularization. It is seen that the mass is free from divergences and independent of the renormalization scheme.

    Higgs boson production by the gluon fusion and its decay into two photons at
    the LHC are investigated in the context of the gauge-Higgs unification
    scenario. The qualitative behaviors for these processes in the gauge-Higgs
    unification are quite distinguishable from those of the Standard Model and the
    universal extra dimension scenario because of the overall sign difference for
    the effective couplings induced by one-loop corrections through Kaluza-Klein
    (KK) modes. For the KK mode mass smaller than 1 TeV, the Higgs productions
    cross section and its branching ratio into two photons are sizably deviated
    from those in the Standard Model. Associated with the discovery of Higgs boson,
    this deviation may be measured at the LHC.

    We study the bulk mass effects on the electroweak phase transition at finite
    temperature in a five dimensional SU(3) gauge-Higgs unification model on an
    orbifold. We investigate whether the Higgs mass satisfying the experimental
    lower bound can be compatible with the strong first order phase transition
    necessary for a successful electroweak baryogenesis. Our numerical results show
    that the above statement can be realized by matter with bulk mass yielding a
    viable Higgs mass. We also find an interesting case where the heavier Higgs
    gives the stronger first order phase transition.

    We study effects of bulk mass on electroweak symmetry breaking and Higgs mass
    in the scenario of five dimensional SU(3) gauge-Higgs unification defined on
    M^4\times S^1/Z_2. The asymptotic form of effective potential for the Higgs
    field is obtained, from which a transparent and useful expression for the Higgs
    mass is found. The small vacuum expectation values (VEV) for Higgs field can be
    realized by choosing bulk mass parameters approriately for a fixed set of
    matter content. The bulk mass for periodic fermion field, in general, has
    effects to make the Higgs mass less heavy. On the other hand, the bulk mass for
    antiperiodic field does not directly affect the Higgs mass, but it contributes
    to increase or decrease the Higgs mass, depending on how small the VEV is
    induced due to the antiperiodic field. We give numerical examples to confirm
    these effects, in which the role of the bulk mass is also definitely clear.

    Several physical quantities of light hadrons are examined by a new
    holographic model of QCD, which is the modified version of the one proposed by
    Erlich et al. defined on AdS${}_5$. In our model, AdS${}_5$ is deformed by a
    non-trivial bulk scalar, this is corresponding to adding the mass term of the
    adjoint fermions to the 4d SYM theory dual to the gravity on AdS${}_5$. We find
    that this deformation should be taken to be rather small, but its important
    effects are also seen.

    The structure of Yukawa coupling matrices is investigated in type IIA T-6/(Z(2) x Z(2)) orientifold models with intersecting D-branes. Yukawa coupling matrices are difficult to be made realistic in conventional models in which the generation structure emerges by the multiple intersection of D-branes in the factorized T-6 = T-2 x T-2 x T-2. We study the new type of favor structure, where Yukawa couplings are dynamically generated, and show this type of models lead to non-trivial structures of Yukawa coupling matrices, which can be realistic.
