Abstract

We present a simple supersymmetric model where the dominant decay mode of the lightest Higgs boson is h→2η→4c, where η is a light pseudoscalar and c is the charm quark. For such decays the Higgs mass can be smaller than 100 GeV without conflict with experiment. Together with the fact that both the Higgs and the pseudoscalar η are pseudo-Goldstone bosons, this resolves the little hierarchy problem.
