Gauge Field Fluctuations Protect the Higgs Vacuum When a Small Universe Begins
The Standard Model Higgs quartic coupling $\lambda$ turns negative at high energies. We show that in a small periodic box with antiperiodic fermions, zero-point fluctuations of the constant gauge modes turn the Higgs zero mode into a resonance for $\lambda<0$, whose width falls exponentially in $|\lambda|^{-1/2}$. A bo...
