ИСТИНА

We discuss a scenario based on the idea of induced spontaneous symmetry breaking. In this type of scenario, spontaneous symmetry breaking is assumed at some highest energy level, which leads to a chain of several subsequent induced symmetry violations at lower levels caused by small mixtures between levels. We present a simple model in which the idea is realized by small mixing between levels using scalar portals. In this approach, the large difference between energy scales, for example the Planck scale and the electroweak scale, occurs due to the product of several small factors proportional to the mixing coefficients. Dark matter fields can be formed in this scenario from matter fields on one or possibly several intermediate levels between the highest and lowest.
