We study the dynamical symmetry breaking in the gauge-Higgs unification of the 5D theory compactified on an orbifold, $S^1/Z_2$. This theory identifies Wilson line degrees of freedoms as ``Higgs doublets''. We consider $SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_W$ and SU(6) models with the compactification scale of order a few TeV. The gauge symmetries are reduced to $SU(3)_c \times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y$ and $SU(3)_c \times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y \times U(1)$, respectively, through the orbifolding boundary conditions. We estimate the one loop effective potential of ``Higgs doublets'', and find that the electro-weak breaking is realized through the radiative corrections when there are suitable numbers of bulk fields possessing the suitable representations. The masses of ``Higgs doublets'' are ${\mathcal O}(100)$ GeV in this scenario.

  1. Composite top partners in exotic colour representations

    hep-ph 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Colour-sextet top partners in composite Higgs models are excluded up to 2-2.5 TeV by current LHC data via top-rich decays, with HL-LHC reach near 3 TeV.
