abstract
We study the idea of a composite Higgs in the framework of a five-dimensional AdS theory. We present the minimal model of the Higgs as a pseudo-Goldstone boson in which electroweak symmetry is broken dynamically via top loop effects, all flavour problems are solved, and contributions to electroweak precision observables are below experimental bounds. Since the 5D theory is weakly coupled, we are able to fully determine the Higgs potential and other physical quantities. The lightest resonances are expected to have a mass around 2 TeV and should be discovered at the LHC. The top sector is mostly composite and deviations from Standard Model couplings are expected.

VLQBounds is a modular Python tool that compares VLQ parameter points to LHC pair and single production limits via grid interpolation and returns 95% CL exclusion verdicts.
Colour-sextet top partners in composite Higgs models are excluded up to 2-2.5 TeV by current LHC data via top-rich decays, with HL-LHC reach near 3 TeV.
HEFT admits two consistent power counting schemes, one with a single low-energy scale v and one with two scales v < f, each allowing systematic truncation of operators and amplitudes for any normalization choice.
Future e+e- colliders can constrain new physics through precision Higgs and electroweak measurements in Higgs-coupling, EFT, and SMEFT frameworks, with updated SMEFiT code released.
XGBoost multivariate analysis extends the 5-sigma discovery reach for singly produced vector-like bottom quarks decaying via heavy neutral Higgs bosons to 1.6 TeV at the HL-LHC with 3 ab^{-1}.
A 6D SO(16) GUT model unifies SM gauge groups with SU(3) family symmetry by placing three chiral generations into one spinor representation, canceling anomalies via vectorlike 6D fermions and fixed-point localized states while noting asymptotic freedom of the SO(16) coupling.
Hidden BSM decays of vector-like bottom quarks in 2HDM-II relax LHC mass limits from ~1.5 TeV to 1.34 TeV for singlets and 0.98 TeV for doublets.
