Abstract
Though being weakly interacting, QED can support bound states. In principle, this can be expected for the weak interactions in the Higgs sector as well. In fact, it has been argued long ago that there should be a duality between bound states and the elementary particles in this sector, at least in leading order in an expansion in the Higgs quantum fluctuations around its expectation value. Whether this remains true beyond the leading order is being investigated using lattice simulations, and support is found. This provides a natural interpretation of peaks in cross-sections as bound states. This would imply that (possibly very broad) resonances of Higgs and W and Z bound states could exist within the Standard Model.
