Abstract

We discuss a possibility to explain the excess of hμτh\to\mu\tau at one-loop level. We introduce three generation of vector-like lepton doublet LL' and two singlet scalars S1,2S_{1,2} which are odd under Z2Z_2, while all the standard model fields are even under this discrete symmetry. We show that S1S_1 can be a good dark matter candidate. We show that we can explain the dark matter relic abundance, large part of the discrepancy of muon g2g-2 between experiments and the standard model predictions, as well as the hμτh\to\mu\tau excess of 1\sim 1 %, while evading constraints from experiments of dark matter direct detection and charged lepton flavor violating processes. We also consider prospects of production of S2S_2 at LHC with energy s=14\sqrt{s}=14 TeV.
