Abstract: (APS)

Gauge models in which the symmetry breaking is dynamical, realized by certain composite Higgs fields acquiring a vacuum expectation value, are more constrained than corresponding models in which the symmetry breaking is implemented by auxiliary elementary scalar representations present at the Lagrangian level. In the former case, physical quantities which would otherwise be free parameters become computable. We illustrate this notable fact for the interesting case of the electron-muon mass ratio in Weinberg's chiral SU(3) model.
