Higgs Field as Architect of a Geodesically Complete Universe and Agent for New Physics in Interiors of Black Holes

The Higgs boson is often compared to a small ripple on a vast, calm ocean. This "ocean" is the universal Higgs vacuum expectation value, about 246 GeV, permeating all space and generating particle masses. Its remarkable uniformity reflects the large-scale nature of the universe. Here I argue that the Higgs field plays a far deeper role. In regions of extreme gravity near singularities, it becomes a non-perturbative, space-time-dependent field that creates new space-time domains beyond gravitational singularities -- new regions governed by antigravity. This mechanism produces dramatic dynamics inside black holes and in the earliest universe, including restoration of the electroweak symmetry SU(2)xU(1) at singularities. The adjoining gravity and antigravity regions form a geodesically complete space-time bridged by traversable singularities -- absent in the Standard Model coupled to general relativity or its extensions such as string theory. In such a framework, the black hole information paradox admits a new, manifestly unitary resolution. Details of computations are developed in the companion paper [1]; here, only a brief outline is given.
