Abstract
We explore the scenario in which the breaking of the electroweak symmetry is due to the simultaneous presence and interplay of a dynamical sector and an unnatural elementary Higgs. We introduce a low energy effective Lagrangian and constrain the various couplings via direct search limits and electroweak and flavor precision tests. We find that the model we study is a viable model of dynamical breaking of the electroweak symmetry.

Unnatural Origin of Fermion Masses for TechnicolorThe elementary Higgs represents the sector responsible for fermion masses
The idea of bosonic technicolor was originally pioneered in a series of papers by Simmons [1], Kagan and Samuel [2] and Carone and Georgi [3, 4]
The TC-sector has no direct couplings with the SM fermions, but the elementary Higgs has Yukawa couplings with both the SM- and technifermions, encoded in LYukawa
Summary
The elementary Higgs represents the sector responsible for fermion masses. Our goal is to investigate the interplay between the technicolor sector and the sector giving masses to the SM fermions, and this simple model works as a well defined framework that permits perturbative calculations. The idea of bosonic technicolor was originally pioneered in a series of papers by Simmons [1], Kagan and Samuel [2] and Carone and Georgi [3, 4] More recently this type of model has been investigated in [5]. The TC-sector has no direct couplings with the SM fermions, but the elementary Higgs has Yukawa couplings with both the SM- and technifermions, encoded in LYukawa.
