Origin of the VEVs hierarchy

We present an origin of the VEVs hierarchy in a non-minimal technicolour framework which is capable of explaining the flavour spectrum of the standard model along with neutrino masses and mixing, and simultaneously satisfying crucial experimental bounds. The technicolour scale in this framework can be lower such that a standard model-like Higgs boson emerges from within the model. We also derive lower bound on the mass of the vector technicolour state using the latest experimental bound on the $S$-parameter.
