Patterns of Dynamical Gauge Symmetry Breaking

Abstract

We construct and analyze theories with a gauge symmetry in the ultraviolet of the form $G\otimes G_b$, in which the vectorial, asymptotically free $G_b$ gauge interaction becomes strongly coupled at a scale where the $G$ interaction is weakly coupled and produces bilinear fermion condensates that dynamically break the $G$ symmetry. Comparisons are given between Higgs and dynamical symmetry breaking mechanisms for various models.
