Abstract

We analyse the ultraviolet stability of the Higgs mass in recently proposed Kaluza–Klein models compactified on S 1 / Z 2 or S 1 /( Z 2 × Z 2 '), both at the field theory and string theory level. Fayet–Iliopoulos terms of U (1) hypercharge are shown to be of vital importance for this discussion. Models with a single Higgs doublet seem to be generically affected by quadratic divergences.
