Abstract:

We present a composite/warped UV-completion of the “twin Higgs” model. Uniquely among composite Higgs models, the Higgs potential is protected by a SM singlet “mirror” sector at the sigma model scale f and not by the composite states at mKK, naturally allowing for mKK beyond the LHC reach. In this region of the parameter space the bounds on anarchic quark flavor are significantly reduced, and the required tuning in the Higgs potential is at the level of 1%.
