We present `twin Higgs models', simple realizations of the Higgs as a pseudo-Goldstone boson that protect the weak scale from radiative corrections up to scales of order 5 - 10 TeV. In the ultra-violet these theories have a discrete symmetry which interchanges each Standard Model particle with a corresponding particle which transforms under a twin or mirror Standard Model gauge group. In addition, the Higgs sector respects an approximate global SU(4) symmetry. When this global symmetry is broken, the discrete symmetry tightly constrains the form of corrections to the pseudo-Goldstone Higgs potential, allowing natural electroweak symmetry breaking. Precision electroweak constraints are satisfied by construction. These models demonstrate that, contrary to the conventional wisdom, stabilizing the weak scale does not require new light particles charged under the Standard Model gauge groups.

Universal Seesaw Leptogenesis
Leptogenesis can proceed from single-generation gauge-singlet mediator decays in a Universal Seesaw model if parity is broken in the neutrino sector; the lightest right-handed neutrino is a sub-eV dark-radiation relic.

The Radial Mode of Composite Higgs Theories at the LHC
LHC Run-2 data exclude the composite-Higgs radial mode below 0.93–1.13 TeV (2σ); HL-LHC can reach 1.8–2.2 TeV, while the twin-Higgs radial mode is projected to 1.2 TeV.

Alleviating Cosmological Tensions with the Hadrosymmetric Twin Higgs
The HTH cosmology fit yields a negligible twin-pion decay rate and density, so the reported H0-tension relief is an artifact of widened parameter errors rather than a new physical mechanism.
