We construct a general class of pseudo-Goldstone composite Higgs models, within the minimal SO(5)/SO(4) coset structure, that are not necessarily of moose-type. We characterize the main properties these models should have in order to give rise to a Higgs mass around 125 GeV. We assume the existence of relatively light and weakly coupled spin 1 and 1/2 resonances. In absence of a symmetry principle, we introduce the Minimal Higgs Potential (MHP) hypothesis: the Higgs potential is assumed to be one-loop dominated by the SM fields and the above resonances, with a contribution that is made calculable by imposing suitable generalizations of the first and second Weinberg sum rules. We show that a 125 GeV Higgs requires light, often sub-TeV, fermion resonances. Their presence can also be important for the models to successfully pass the electroweak precision tests. Interestingly enough, the latter can also be passed by models with a heavy Higgs around 320 GeV. The composite Higgs models of the moose-type considered in the literature can be seen as particular limits of our class of models.

Meson spectroscopy in the $Sp(4)$ gauge theory with three antisymmetric fermions
Lattice simulations of Sp(4) with three antisymmetric Dirac fermions find QCD-like confinement and chiral symmetry breaking, and provide a first continuum-extrapolated meson spectrum.

Electroweak phase transition with composite Higgs models: calculability, gravitational waves and collider searches
A strong first-order electroweak phase transition is impossible in SO(6)/SO(5) composite Higgs models under the minimal Higgs potential hypothesis, and requires undetermined UV operator contributions, as shown in a 6+...
