We present the study of the SM Higgs properties obtained from the combined analysis of the up-to 10 fb-1 dataset collected by the CDF and D0 experiments during the ppbar collision at 1.96 TeV center-of-mass energy of Tevatron Run II. The observed local significance for the SM Higgs boson signal is of 3.0 sigma at mH=125 GeV. After a brief review of analysis channels contributing the most,...

I present global fits to all available (pre-Moriond) scalar boson data from the LHC and Tevatron. The result implies metastable Standard Model scalar potential with a global minimum above the Planck scale with the statistical significance at 3 sigma level. I discuss implications of the BEH boson properties for our understanding of physics beyond the Standard Model.

I show that the most minimal completion of the Standard Model with stable
vacuum is obtained by extending it with one complex singlet scalar. The model contains a stable Dark Matter candidate due to CP conservation without imposing additional discrete symmetries, and may accommodate inflation at the same time.
