Higgs mass dependence of electroweak radiative corrections and the triviality bound

Abstract

We discuss how the existence of a triviality bound for the Higgs sector of the standard model does influence the dependence of radiative corrections upon the Higgs mass. The lowering of the Landau pole with increasing Higgs mass implies that the sensitivity to Higgs mass values beyond ≈ 500 GeV is lost due to the sizeable cut-off dependence of the theory.
