I. INTRODUCTION

In this paper we study new physics contributions to themuon anomalous magnetic moment in theories where theHiggs is a Goldstone boson (GB) and leptons are partiallycomposite, see [1] for a review. These models are stronglymotivated by the hierarchy problem because the Higgsboson, being a composite state, is not sensitive to scalesmuch shorter than its size. This points to a scale ofcompositeness around TeV that is being tested at the LHC.Our main motivation here is the long standing muon

We work within the framework of composite Higgsmodels with partial compositeness. The Higgs is a GB ofsome strongly coupled theory with global symmetry Gspontaneously broken to a subgroupH at a scale f > v. Forconcreteness we will focus on the minimal models based onSOð5Þ=SOð4Þ but our results can be extended to otherpatterns of symmetry breaking and different representa-tions, see [6].

At 1-loop the new physics contribution to Xμ arises fromdiagrams with heavy fermions χ in the loop with charge-2, -1 or 0 and SM gauge fields or Higgs. To leading orderΔXμ is generated by diagrams with one left and one rightmixing corresponding to the function G in the expressionsreported in Appendix B.There are two classes of contributions drawn in Fig. 1.

The first corresponds to diagrams with heavy compositefermions in the loop and W, Z or Higgs with nonde-rivative interactions. These are analogous to the onesconsidered in renormalizable theories with vectorlikefermions [2–5,11,12] except that the couplings of thecomposite leptons have new contributions from the con-nections eμ and dμ. With the standard formulas collected inAppendix A, the contribution of heavy fermions comingfrom this first class of diagrams reads,

(v ¼ 246 GeV) valid to first order in the mixings and in thelimit mχ ≫ mZ;W;h. These contributions can be, in general,complex and generate both electric and magnetic dipolemoments. Within an explicit model the couplings in theequation above are obtained by rotating the matrices ofcouplings to the mass basis. For this purpose, given thesmallness of the muon mass, it is sufficient to use therotation matrices to first order in the mixings. In the CCWZparametrization this is particularly simple since the onlyoff-diagonal terms in the mass matrix are the elementary-composite mixings. The contribution from Higgs exchangeis not sub-leading contrary to the SMwhere it is suppressedbym2

μ=m2h compared to the gauge one. Note that in theories

with vector-like leptons without GB structure the Higgs canhave additional non-derivative interactions with the heavyfermions that dominate [11,12].The second type of contribution is strictly associated

to the GB nature of the Higgs and is analogous to the oneconsidered for dipole moment of baryons in QCD, see [13]and Refs. therein. The term in the Lagrangian (4)proportional to cL;R contains a derivative interaction ofthe Higgs with the composite fermions. Through this vertextwo new diagrams can be drawn that contribute to thedipole moment shown on the second line of Fig. 1. Weevaluate these new contributions in Appendix B. The loopdiagrams are finite but their values depend on the regu-larization procedure. Evaluating the integrals in 4D onefinds,

valid within the same approximations as above.Before analyzing the explicit model above let us discuss

the general structure of the result. The chiral structure ofdipole moments is identical to the one of mass terms. As aconsequence, the group theoretical structure, controlled bythe global symmetries of the theory, is also similar in thetwo cases. To leading order the dipole moment must beproportional to the product of the mixings of left and rightchirality of the muon. The Higgs dependence can bedetermined using a spurion analysis. To do this one shouldassign the elementary fields to a representation of the globalsymmetry and write all the invariants under the unbrokengroup using the GB matrix, see [6] for more details.

where ðlLÞi and and ðμRÞj denote the embedding of theelementary fields into G representations riL and rjR and Pij

Aare the projectors over the irreducible H representationscontained in the product of riL × rjR. The coefficients xijAcontain the dynamical information.When a single invariant exists, ΔXμ will always be

proportional to the muon mass because the Yukawacouplings have an identical expansion as Eq. (12). Forthe model in Eqs. (4), (6) this can be realized whenyL4

where κ depends solely on the parameters of the compositesector and can be complex only if the composite sectorviolates CP. When elementary fields couple to more thanone state as in (6) or several invariants arise in thedecomposition of rL × rR, ΔXμ will not be proportionalto mμ but will depend explicitly on the mixing parameters.In particular it can be complex even if the composite sectorrespects CP.

III. RESULTS

We now apply the tools described in the previous sectionto the model given by the eqs. (4), (6). The relevantcouplings of the muon to the heavy fermion resonances canbe extracted from Appendix A. Using the formulas abovewe find,

to leading order in the mixings. On the first line there arethe contributions from nonderivative interactions mediatedby the Higgs and the Z boson, respectively. The contribu-tion of W loops is zero due to a cancellation between thediagrams with doubly charged and neutral heavy fermion inthe loop. In the second and third lines we show thecontributions from the derivative Higgs interactions.In Fig. 2 we plot a scan over the parameters of the model

assuming real parameters and cL ¼ cR ¼ c. A sizablecontribution to Δaμ can be generated and the effect doesnot require extremely light fermions. Δaμ tends to growwith c but larger values of c may lead to tension withbounds from S parameter, see discussion below. We shouldnote that ΔXμ is in general complex, even for realcomposite sector parameters. This implies strong boundsif a similar contribution is induced for the electron [14].An interesting special case is obtained when the left and

right chirality of the muon couple to a single operator of thestrong sector. This can be realized for yL1

As expected ΔXμ is expressed in terms of the muon massand composite sector parameters and it is real, contributingonly to the magnetic dipole moment. In Fig. 3 we show acontour plot of Δaμ as a function of m4=m1 and c. Δaμ isenhanced for a small splitting between the quadruplet andsinglet masses and grows with c. The light green regiongives a contribution to Δaμ in agreement with the exper-imental value at 1σ.

A. Bounds

The phenomenology of partially composite leptons wasdiscussed in [16], (see also [4]). Due to the smallness oftheir masses the compositeness of SM leptons is typicallysmall leading to very mild constraints from modifiedcouplings and compositeness bounds. For example thecorrection to the coupling of left-handed muons in themodel discussed above is

while the coupling of μR does not receive corrections at treelevel. Large effects can only be obtained if one chirality ofleptons is strongly composite. The most important indirectconstraint arises from the S parameter. As we have seen, thederivative coupling proportional to c is a key ingredientto obtain a sizable contribution to ΔXμ, unless the reso-nances are almost degenerate. The same parameter alsoinduces a calculable correction to S from loops ofcomposite fermions [8,15],

where Λ is an UV cutoff and finite terms depend on theregularization scheme. In the formula above we included amultiplicity factor for 3 generations. Indeed, realizingminimal flavor violation (MFV) in these models requiresa degenerate spectrum and couplings across differentgenerations [17]. In Fig. 2 red points correspond to afermionic contribution ΔS > 0.5 and are therefore disfa-vored from the experimental bound. Other contributions toS could however compensate for this effect.Direct searches from LHC exclude composite partners

only up to 300–400 GeV. The most significant differencefrom other models of vectorlike leptons concerns Higgscouplings. The mass spectrum and, as a consequence, thecoupling of the Higgs to muons (hμμ) does not depend oncL;R,

The modification of the Higgs coupling to fermions is infact universal to leading order, depending only on therepresentation. With a phenomenologically plausible valuef ¼ 800 GeV or larger, hμμ does not place a significantbound on our scenario. This removes the correlationbetween ΔXμ and the Higgs couplings found in renorma-lizable models [2,3]. In those references the contribution toΔXμ needed to reproduce the experimental anomaly wouldimply an order 5-10 modification of the decay rate of theHiggs to muons, that is on the verge of being excluded byLHC measurements. Moreover in a complete flavor picturerealizing MFV an identical modification of the τ couplingto the Higgs would be generated that is grossly excluded byLHC measurements.ΔXμ in (14) is in general complex so that the imaginary

part contributes to the muon EDM. When only twocouplings exist the phase is different from zero if thecomposite sector violates CP (cL;R complex) and parity

(cL ≠ cR). At present this does not provide a constraint forthe muon but an analogous contribution for the electron istightly constrained [14]: the imaginary part should besuppressed by a factor 10−3 relative to Δae.

IV. DISCUSSION

In this paper we computed the anomalous magneticmoment of the muon in theories with GB Higgs andpartially composite fermions. Some new features arisecompared to renormalizable theories studied in the liter-ature. In particular, interactions associated to the GB natureof the Higgs give extra contributions that can enhance Δaμand new diagrams with Higgs derivative interactions existthat can give a sizable effect. Our results show that it isplausible in certain regions of parameters to obtain acontribution that would account for the experimentalanomaly. This depends crucially on the model dependentcoupling c that controls the interactions of the Higgs withthe composite fermions.We should note that, working within a nonrenormaliz-

able effective field theory, our results should be interpretedas an estimate of the size of Δaμ in this type of theories.Certainly we also expect UV contributions to the muonmagnetic moment that are uncalculable in our framework.In particular composite sector operators such as,1

contribute to the magnetic moment of the muon. Assumingthat dipoles are suppressed by a loop of the strongdynamics (as for example in weakly coupled 5D realiza-tions of our framework) we find that their typical size is

which is an order of magnitude smaller than required toreproduce the anomaly for f ¼ 800 GeV. The IR contri-bution from loops of light degrees of freedom would be inthis case dominant. Nevertheless, we cannot a prioriexclude that larger UV contributions are present.It is interesting to cast our results into the broader flavor

picture of partially composite Higgs models, see [16,17] fora detailed discussion. The hypothesis of partial compos-iteness can suppress flavor transitions beyond the SM.Nevertheless, severe bounds exist especially in the leptonsector. For example Br½μ → eγ� < 5 × 10−13 hints to ascale of compositeness Λ > 50 TeV much larger thanthe value expected for these models if they are relevant

to the hierarchy problem. Tension with flavor constraintscan be eliminated if the theory realizes MFV. In fact, partialcompositeness allows us to elegantly realize this hypoth-esis: this requires that the composite sector possesses flavorsymmetries that are only broken by mixings proportional tothe SM Yukawa couplings. This can be realized if left-handed or right-handed fermions have equal degree ofcompositeness. One interesting prediction is that the con-tribution to the ðg − 2Þ of the electron is related to the oneof the muon as,

that could be of interest in future experiments [14].Moreover, contributions to EDMs are automatically zeroat 1-loop if the strong sector also respects CP.Our results can be extended in various directions. First,

models with different representations of composite fer-mions or different patterns of symmetry breaking can bestudied with the techniques described in this paper andother dipole moments relevant for composite Higgs modelscan be computed. One obvious generalization is forexample the computation of chromo-magnetic operatorsin the quark sector. The same type of effects studied herealso appears in models with extra-dimensions that corre-spond to an infinite number of resonances with derivativecouplings determined by the metric. Finally the contribu-tion of composite spin-1 resonances could also be studiedalong the lines described in this paper.

The relevant couplings used in the paper (denoted with a“hat”) are obtained rotating to the physical mass basisdefined by Eq. (A7) (Higgs Yukawa couplings are given byλ ¼ dM−1=dhhi). Explicit formulas are easily derived tofirst order in the mixings sufficient for the analysis in thispaper.

APPENDIX B: DIPOLE MOMENTS

In this appendix we present the relevant formulas fordipole moments in theories with GB Higgs. At 1-loop only

states with charge -2, -1, 0 (χ−2;−1;0) contribute. Weconsider the following interaction terms,

Naively the integral over momenta is logarithmicallydivergent and needs to be regularized. One can see thatupon integration over u the result is finite but it depends onthe regulator chosen. The different results correspond to theaddition of UV local operators such us (19) to the effectiveaction. For our estimates we perform the integral in 4D.Neglecting the muon mass relative to mh and mχ we find,
