New Higgs mechanism from the lattice

Abstract

Spontaneous symmetry breaking has been observed in lattice simulations of five-dimensional gauge theories on an orbifold. This effect is reproduced by perturbation theory if it is modified to account for a finite cut-off. We present a comparison of lattice and analytic results for bulk gauge group SU(2).
