Can gravity make the Higgs particle light?
Abstract
The spontaneous symmetry breaking theory of gravity is examined, assuming that the vacuum expectation value of the standard model Higgs is also responsible for the generation of the Planck mass. In this model the physical Higgs couples only with gravitational strength to matter. At presently accessible energies the theory is indistinguishable from the standard model without Higgs boson and is in agreement with all existing data.At energies above the Fermi scale new dynamics should occur.
