A Heavy Higgs<br />
The constraints from top and W loops can be avoided if the Higgs<br />
mass itself is rather heavy. (The limit is below 1 TeV.)<br />
In this case, only Higgs self-couplings count. With increasing<br />
energy, the Higgs self-coupling becomes non-perturbative.<br />
The result is a Landau pole in the Higgs self-coupling at about<br />
Λ ∼ m H exp 8π2 v 2<br />
6m 2 H<br />
(Similarly, for a too light Higgs the top-loop drives the<br />
self-coupling negative at high energies.)<br />
Only for m H ∼ 130 GeV, these cutoffs can be pushed to infinity.
