Abstract:
Recently five dimensional supersymmetric models with a Scherk-Schwarz supersymmetry breaking and a localized superpotential on a fixed-point have been constructed to yield a definite prediction for the Higgs mass. We examine this issue in detail and show that the finite one loop correction and the definite prediction for the Higgs mass are just a consequence of a special "Kaluza-Klein regularization" scheme.

  • supersymmetry: symmetry breaking
