Abstract

The possibility that no new physics will be found at the TeV scale is spurring the community to go back to the motivating points for the expectation of new physics: the Hierarchy Problem and the concept of naturalness. Some authors have recently come out with new models that allegedly solve the problem without predicting new physics at low energy, but these usually depend on strong assumptions on high scale physics (such as the GUT or Plack scales). We intend to do a deep and comprehensive revision on the Hierarchy Problem in the Stardard Model and some simple extensions, exploring then these new proposals (that avoid new signals at the TeV scale).
