Start with classical scale invariant (CSI) lagrangian
Through RG evolution, the scalar potential develop flat direction, quantum correction shift the vev to non-vanishing value: Coleman-Weinberg
(Additional) gauge interaction grows strong and dynamically sets a condensation scale

In the SM it doesn't work due to large top loop => negative Higgs mass
Need additional bosons

S has no VEV
Need large coupling to pump up the Higgs mass
Landau pole problem
S gets mass after H obtains VEV
S obtains VEV

Concrete Model
● Advantage of having 3 dark color and 3 flavors = Can use QCD data to scale up spectrum● Nambu-Jona-Lasinio approach allows us to determine a lot of paramaters dynamically.● Less free parameters if we mimic QCD, but in general can be of any gauge group and
flavor.

Constraining the Parameter Space
● To ensure that the theory survives up to Planck scale
● Mass of DM has to be smaller than hidden fermion's constituent mass
● Possible reason why
● Possible reason that QCD scale is lower than EW due to different number of flavor

Direct Detection Prospect
The model predicts no signal in LUX and XENON1T. But the small range of parameter space can be confirmed or excluded by next generation DM direct detection.
Caused by restrictive parameter space and the need to satisfy the Higgs mass, mixing bound, relic density, perturbativity up to Planck scale, etc

CSI and Accidental U(1)
We can exploit this free lunch by identifying it with electromagnetism
Charged dark fermion
DM remains neutral
HESS limit
Highly non-trivial to use NJL approach while maintaining gauge invariance. Needs “least subtraction method” (More fun stuffs in our paper).
e.g. Q = 1/3
Still has U(1) symmetry in

Summary
● A strongly coupled hidden sector model based on NJL where the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking induces EWSB via singlet mediator.
● The strongly coupled hidden sector is a scaled up QCD → Less free parameter.
● The model provides natural DM candidates, i.e. the dark pions, which are stable under flavor symmetry.
● A QCD extension with scalar of larger irreducible representation that condenses at TeV scale, generating EW scale via dimensional transmutation.
● The mass of the extra scalar is very restrictive, and can be confirmed or ruled out by LHC.
● Higgs production rate in gluon fusion is suppressed. Accidental U(1) symmetry may enhance
● With no sign of new physics from LHC, long-held belief on naturalness should be scrutnized.
● Classical scale invariance might act as protective symmetry as alternative solution to hierarchy problem, and generates EW scale radiatively.
● We propose 2 models that generate EW scale dynamically.
A new way of model building?
