Light Higgs boson from multi-phase criticality in dynamical symmetry breaking

The Coleman-Weinberg mechanism can realise different phases of dynamical symmetry breaking. In each phase a combination of scalars, corresponding to the pseudo-Goldstone boson of scale invariance, has a loop-suppressed mass. We show that additional scalars, beyond the pseudo-Goldstone bosons, can be...
