Description
We discuss a mechanism through which the multi-vacua theories, such as String Theory, could solve the Hierarchy Problem, without any UV-regulating new physics at low energies. Because of symmetry, the number density of vacua with a certain hierarchically-small Higgs mass diverges (or is very sharply peaked), and is an attractor on the vacuum landscape. (author)
