A correct renormalization procedure for the electroweak chiral Lagrangian
/ Authors
/ Abstract
We perform a systematic one-loop renormalization to the standard model with a nonlinearly realized Higgs boson field and the electroweak chiral Lagrangian up to $O(p^2)$ order. We find even in the nonlinear form, the Higgs model of the standard model is renormalizable in our procedure. We also examine $\beta$ functions of gauge couplings for the standard model and $\beta$ functions for anomalous couplings in the electroweak chiral Lagrangian up to $O(p^2)$ order, and find our results agree with all well-known results. Based on these observations, we conclude that our calculation procedure could be a correct one to systematically construct the divergences of the electroweak chiral Lagrangian when $O(p^4)$ operators are included.
