contents Given any compact connected matrix Lie group $G$ and any lattice dimension $d\ge 2$, we construct a massive Gaussian scaling limit for the $G$-valued lattice Yang-Mills-Higgs theory in the "complete breakdown of symmetry" regime. This limit arises as the lattice spacing tends to zero and the (inverse) gauge coupling constant tends to infinity sufficiently fast, causing the theory to "abelianize" and yield a Gaussian limit. This complements a recent work by Chatterjee (arXiv:2401.10507), which obtained a similar scaling limit in the special case $G= SU(2)$.
