Results Instability of fixed points with large scaling exponents. Low-dimensional representations are preferable Stable solutions show that there are no UV perturbative FPs that can be connected to the TeV physics. Stability condition rules out other models appearing in the literature. [A. Bond, G. Hiller, K. Kowalska, D.
