• If EWSB is due to a condensate of strongly-interacting fermions, one would expect, in general, composite scalar particles
• To not be excluded by experiments, this scalar states should mimic a SM-like Higgs boson.
• This could happen if the composite scalar is a light pseudo-
Goldstone boson of some (higher scale) broken symmetry, e.g:
- approximate scale invariance symmetry (dilaton)
- larger chiral symmetry (composite Goldstone boson Higgs)
Can the Higgs be composite?

of QCD, we expect c⇧ ' 1 and, thus, SM-like HWW and HZZ couplings. This need not be the case for walking dynamics, although departures from QCD-like dynamics by no means imply non-standard couplings to massive weak bosons. Finally we note that in TC the HWW and HZZ couplings receive small corrections from tree-level mixing of the electroweak bosons with the TC spin-one resonances5 [26].
B. TC Higgs couplings to f f
The interactions of the TC Higgs or the technipions with two SM fermions are due to four- fermion operators of the form ¯f f0FF0. Here f and f0 are SM flavors, whereas F and F0 are techniflavors, with TC gauge indices contracted to form a TC singlet. At low energy these operators generate vertices such as Hf f¯ and ⇧a f f¯ 0. Unlike the coupling to the weak bosons, there are no corresponding quantities in QCD which allow us to estimate the value of these couplings. However, Ward identities guarantee that the couplings of two SM fermions with the EW Goldstone bosons, at zero external momenta, are identical to their SM values. Of course these Ward identities tell us nothing about the Hf f¯ coupling. On the other hand, we have just seen that the interactions of the meson and the pions in QCD are well approximated by a linear sigma model. If this holds in TC as well, then a ⇧a f f¯ 0 coupling close to its SM value implies that the TC Higgs couplings to SM flavors are close to their SM values, i.e cf ' 1. In the case of a true techni-dilaton, Ward-identities related to the spontaneously-broken scale symmetry can be used to determine cf [42, 43]. Finally, if SM fermion masses are generated by an ETC sector, we expect
5 Similarly when vector mesons are introduced into the linear sigma model of QCD the fits are altered.
