Abstract

In this article we discuss the problem of the extreme fine-tuning necessary to achieve the top quark mass scale mt within the dynamical symmetry breaking of the phenomenological t t condensate model. Inspired by the vector-like phenomenon of chiral gauge theories at short distances, we postulate that the W-gauge bosons possess a vector-like gauge coupling and contribute to the gap-equations of quark self-energy functions in the high-energy region. We find that the gap-equations of different charge sectors are coupled, and as a result the unnatural fine-tuning is overcome and the ratio of the top and bottom masses is related to the electric charge: (mb mt)2 α3π, provided the quadratic divergence is removed by setting the four-fermion coupling G=4+o(mb2 mt2).
