D 59 (7) (March 2). doi:10.1103/physrevd.59.075003.0556-2821http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:28265574We study electroweak symmetry breaking involving the seesaw mechanism of quark condensation. These models produce a composite Higgs boson involving the left-handed top quark, yet the top mass arises naturally at the observed scale. We describe a schematic model which illustrates the general dynamical ideas. We also consider a generic low-energy effective theory which includes several composite scalars, and we use the effective potential formalism to compute their spectrum. We develop a more detailed model in which certain features of the schematic model are replaced by additional dynamics.en-USJournal Article2016-09-0710.1103/PhysRevD.59.075003
