We study the effect of primordial black holes on the classical rate of nucleation of AdS regions within the standard electroweak vacuum. We find that the energy barrier for transitions to the new vacuum, which characterizes the exponential suppression of the nucleation rate, can be reduced significantly in the black-hole background. A precise analysis is required in order to determine whether the the existence of primordial black holes is compatible with the form of the Higgs potential at high temperature or density in the Standard Model or its extensions.

    The authors argue that near a black hole horizon the gravitational field flattens the Higgs potential, removing the sphaleron barrier, and that the resulting baryon generation can explain early massive galaxies and th...
