Based on the weak coupling expansion of gravity, we calculate the gravitational contributions to yukawa coupling, scalar quartic coupling as well as gauge couplings with general Landau-DeWitt gauge-fixing choice and a gauge preserving (of SM gauge group) cut off regularization scheme. We find that the results depend on the Landau-DeWitt gauge-fixing parameter. Based on the two loop RGE of SM couplings with one loop full gravitational contributions in harmonic gauge, we study the constraints on the higgs and top quark mass from the requirement of existing the other degenerate vacua at the Planck-dominated region. Our numerical calculations show that nature will not develop the other degenerate vacua at the Planck-dominated region with current higgs and top quark masses. On the other hand, requiring the existence of the other degenerate vacua at the Planck-dominated region will constrain the higgs and top mass to lie at approximately 130 and 174 GeV, respectively.
We propose a scenario in which the Planck scale is dynamically linked to the electroweak scale induced by top condensation. The standard model field content, without the Higgs, is promoted to a 5D warped background. There is also an additional 5D fer
In N=1 supergravity the scalar potential may have supersymmetric (SUSY) and non-supersymmetric Minkowski vacua (associated with supersymmetric and physical phases) with vanishing energy density. In the supersymmetric Minkowski (second) phase some bre
We argue that the exact degeneracy of vacua in N=1 supergravity can shed light on the smallness of the cosmological constant. The presence of such vacua, which are degenerate to very high accuracy, may also result in small values of the quartic Higgs
It is shown how pure Dirac neutrino masses can naturally occur at low energies even in the presence of Planck scale lepton number violation. The geometrical picture in five dimensions assumes that the lepton number symmetry is explicitly broken on th
We consider fermions on an extra dimensional interval. We find the boundary conditions at the ends of the interval that are consistent with the variational principle, and explain which ones arise in various physical circumstances. We apply these resu
