Title: Study of SU(4) Composite Higgs Model with fermions in multiple representations

Speaker: Dr. Venkitesh Ayyar, U. of Colorado Boulder

Abstract: The idea that Higgs boson might be composed of new types of fundamental particles, has been around since the mid-1980s. In these models, the Higgs boson arises from spontaneous breaking in a new QCD-like strong sector.

In this talk, I will present our study of one such Composite Higgs model using the Lattice approach. I will describe the spectrum and phase diagram of this theory. This talk will be based on the material in arxiv:1710.00806, arxiv:1801.05809 and arxiv:1802.09644.
