Higgs Boson in RG running Inflationary Cosmology    [PDF]

Yi-Fu Cai, Damien A. Easson

An intriguing hypothesis is that gravity may be non-perturbatively
renormalizable via the notion of asymptotic safety. We show that the Higgs
sector of the SM minimally coupled to asymptotically safe gravity can generate
the observed near scale-invariant spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background
through the curvaton mechanism. The resulting primordial power spectrum places
an upper bound on the Higgs mass, which for canonical values of the curvaton
parameters, is compatible with the recently released Large Hadron Collider
data.
