Cd. Froggatt et al., Standard model Higgs boson mass from borderline metastability of the vacuum - art. no. 113014, PHYS REV D, 6411(11), 2001, pp. 3014
We study imposing the condition that the standard model effective Higgs pot
ential should have two approximately degenerate vacua, such that the vacuum
we live in is just barely metastable: the one in which we live has a vacuu
m expectation value of 246 GeV and the other one should have a vacuum expec
tation value of the order of the Planck scale. Alone borderline metastabili
ty gives, using the experimental top quark mass 173.1+/-4.6 GeV. the Higgs
boson mass prediction 121.8+/-11 I GeV. The requirement that the second min
imum be at the Planck scale already gave the prediction 173+/-4 GeV for the
top quark mass according to our 1995 paper.
