It is proposed that the Higgs vacuum possesses a small-scale structure that can explain the large discrepancy between the predicted electroweak vacuum energy density and the observed cosmological constant. An effective Lagrangian description is employed to obtain modifications to the Standard Model predictions that can be tested at collider experiments.

We study dynamics of non-minimally coupled scalar field cosmological models with Higgs-like potentials and a negative cosmological constant. In these models the inflationary stage of the Universe evolution changes into a quasi-cyclic stage of the Uni
verse evolution with oscillation behaviour of the Hubble parameter from positive to negative values. Depending on the initial conditions the Hubble parameter can perform either one or several cycles before to become negative forever.
We introduce a novel method to circumvent Weinbergs no-go theorem for self-tuning the cosmological vacuum energy: a Lorentz-violating finite-temperature superfluid can counter the effects of an arbitrarily large cosmological constant. Fluctuations of
the superfluid result in the graviton acquiring a Lorentz-violating mass and we identify a unique class of theories that are pathology free, phenomenologically viable, and do not suffer from instantaneous modes. This new and hitherto unidentified phase of massive gravity propagates the same degrees of freedom as general relativity with an additional Lorentz-violating scalar that is introduced by higher-derivative operators in a UV insensitive manner. The superfluid is therefore a consistent infrared modification of gravity. We demonstrate how the superfluid can degravitate a cosmological constant and discuss its phenomenology.
Lattice results on sigma terms and global analysis of parton momentum fractions are used to give the quark and glue fractions of the proton mass and rest energy. The mass decomposition in terms of the trace of the energy-momentum tensor is renormaliz
ation group invariant. The decomposition of the rest energy from the Hamiltonian and the gravitational form factors are scheme and scale dependent. The separation of the energy-momentum tensor into the traceless part which is composed of the quark and glue parton momentum fractions and the trace part has the minimum scheme dependence. We identify the glue part of the trace anomaly $langle H_{beta}rangle $ as the vacuum energy from the glue condensate in the vacuum. From the metric term of the gravitational form factors, which is the stress part of the stress-energy-momentum tensor, we find that the trace part of the rest energy, dominated by $langle H_{beta}rangle$, gives a {it constant} restoring pressure which balances that from the traceless part of the Hamiltonian to confine the hadron, much like the cosmological constant Einstein introduced for a static universe. From a lattice calculation of $langle H_{beta}rangle$ in the charmonium, we deduce the associated string tension which turns out to be in good agreement with that from a Cornell potential which fits the charmonium spectrum.
String theory has no parameter except the string scale, so a dynamically compactified solution to 4 dimensional spacetime should determine both the Planck scale and the cosmological constant $Lambda$. In the racetrack Kahler uplift flux compactificat
ion model in Type IIB theory, where the string theory landscape is generated by scanning over discrete values of all the flux parameters, a statistical preference for an exponentially small $Lambda$ is found to be natural (arXiv:1305.0753). Within this framework and matching the median $Lambda$ value to the observed $Lambda$, a mass scale ${bf m}simeq 100$ GeV naturally appears. We explain how the electroweak scale can be identified with this mass scale.
We use the discrete group Sigma(81) = (Z_3 x Z_3 x Z_3)rtimes Z_3 to explore a particular region of parameter space in the Private Higgs model. In doing so we suggest a relation among the off-diagonal entries of the neutrino mass matrix and a possibl
e explanation for the muon magnetic moment anomaly, a_mu^{exp}-a_mu^{SM} ~ 10^{-9}. We predict three new nearly degenerate Higgs doublets with masses of order ~ 500 GeV to ~ 1 TeV, and three nearly degenerate SM-singlet TeV-scale neutrinos. The largest scale in the model is ~ 10 TeV, so there is no severe hierarchy problem. The appendix is devoted to the group theory of Sigma(81).
