Higgs compositeness in Sp(2N) gauge theories — Resymplecticisation, scale setting and topology

As part of an ongoing programme to study Sp(2N) gauge theories as potential realisations of composite Higgs models, we consider the case of Sp(4) on the lattice, both as a pure gauge theory, and with two Dirac fermion flavors in the fundamental representation. In order to compare results between the...
