Using a high-statistics lattice simulation of the Ising limit of (lambda Phi(4))(4) theory, we have measured the susceptibility and propagator in the broken phase.

The discrepancy becomes worse as one goes closer to the continuum limit; thus, it cannot be explained by residual perturbative effects. The data are consistent with an unconventional description of symmetry breaking and "triviality" in which the rescaling factor for the finite-momentum fluctuations tends to unity, but the rescaling factor for the condensate becomes larger and larger as one approaches the continuum limit. In the standard model this changes the interpretation of the Fermi-constant scale and its relation to the Higgs mass.

Further lattice evidence for a large rescaling of the Higgs condensate

Abstract

Using a high-statistics lattice simulation of the Ising limit of (lambda Phi(4))(4) theory, we have measured the susceptibility and propagator in the broken phase. We confirm our earlier finding of a discrepancy between the field rescaling implied by the propagator data and that implied by the susceptibility. The discrepancy becomes worse as one goes closer to the continuum limit; thus, it cannot be explained by residual perturbative effects. The data are consistent with an unconventional description of symmetry breaking and "triviality" in which the rescaling factor for the finite-momentum fluctuations tends to unity, but the rescaling factor for the condensate becomes larger and larger as one approaches the continuum limit. In the standard model this changes the interpretation of the Fermi-constant scale and its relation to the Higgs mass.
