Dynamical Stabilization of the Fermi Scale Towards a Composite Unive
This lecture-based, concise primer introduces and summarize basic features associated with dynamical breaking of the electroweak symmetry in elementary particle physics. In particular, the phase diagram of strongly-coupled theories as function of the numb
