Abstract
The top-quark Yukawa coupling is too large to permit radiative electroweak symmetry breaking to occur, to leading-logarithm order, for small values of y — the Higgs self-coupling. However, a large y solution leading to a viable Higgs mass of approximately 220 GeV does exist, and differs from conventional symmetry breaking by an approximately five-fold enhancement of the Higgs self-coupling. This scenario for radiative symmetry breaking is reviewed, and the order-by-order perturbative stability of this scenario is studied within the scalar-field theory projection of the Standard Model in which the Higgs self-coupling y represents the dominant Standard-Model coupling.PACS Nos.: 11.30.Qc, 11.10.Hi, 11.15.Tk, 12.15.Lk
