### The Higgs Hypothesis

Let us now consider the (possibly an effective) Higgs hypothesis. Since it need not resemble the spin $1/2$ and spin $1$ braids, this one extra state could arise as a three dimensional state formed by symmetrizing the unused tetractys diagonal,

$XXX \oplus YYY \oplus ZZZ$

for some ill defined $\oplus$. Recall that the $XXX$, $YYY$ and $ZZZ$ paths define the axes of the Koide space. Since planes in this space are the basis of triality, we could draw this product as a trivalent vertex with an $H$ at the centre point. This vertex closes the doubled tetractys into a tetrahedron, now with $56 = 2 \times 28$ labels.

Note that Tony Smith's original 1993 calculation of the (so called) truth quark mass, based on triality, gave an estimate of $130$ GeV, not far from the observed value.

1. Kea, do not be so quick to give up on your position that there is no simple single Standard Model Higgs around 125 GeV.

If you look closely at the underlying data that was released 13 Dec
you see some things that seem to me to be likely to kill any such result. I am now in the process of writing them up to put on viXra,
but here are files of a couple of thoughts that you might find interesting.

Further, if you look at the Higgs to ZZ to 4l bin structure for ATLAS
you see that the 3-event peak that they like to cite around 125 GeV
is peculiar:
each of the two adjoining bins are empty.
If the 3 events were spread 1-1-1 evenly among those 3 bins,
they would be insignificant.
Only by putting all 3 in the middle 0-3-0 could ATLAS claim anything,
and note that CMS did NOT see anything like the 0-3-0 distribution.

Wow, Tony, you are always on the ball! Thanks for the hints. I have not really given up any ideas yet, but in my attempts to be a serious theorist, I cannot ignore the evidence. Now I will look at your link. Today, I am simply thinking out loud! I got up around 5am, and it is now 5pm, and I'm sure I will be confused for a while ...

3. Tony, is there not already a combination at $3$ sigma (as opposed to something like $4.5$ sigma) which accounts for this discrepancy?
