abstract

We search for asymptotic safety in a Yukawa system with a chiral $U(N_L)_L\otimes U(1)_R$ symmetry, serving as a toy model for the standard-model Higgs sector. Using the functional RG as a nonperturbative tool, the leading-order derivative expansion exhibits admissible non-Ga\ssian fixed-points for $1 \leq N_L \leq 57$ which arise from a conformal threshold behavior induced by self-balanced boson-fermion fluctuations. If present in the full theory, the fixed-point would solve the triviality problem. Moreover, as one fixed point has only one relevant direction even with a reduced hierarchy problem, the Higgs mass as well as the top mass are a prediction of the theory in terms of the Higgs vacuum expectation value. In our toy model, the fixed point is destabilized at higher order due to massless Goldstone and fermion fluctuations, which are particular to our model and have no analogue in the standard model.

  1. Fermions and the Renormalisation Group at Large N

    hep-th 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    At large N, fermionic quantum field theories have exact effective actions depending only on flavour-singlet fermion bilinears, making the local potential approximation exact and yielding new conformal fixed points.

  2. Fermi scale from quantum gravity scaling solution

    hep-th 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The Fermi/Planck ratio is claimed to be predictable from the analyticity of the quantum-gravity scaling solution for the cosmon-Higgs coupling, with numerics showing the coupling flows to a tiny, near-critical value.
