Abstract

We calculate one-loop corrected Yukawa coupling constants hffˉhf\bar{f} for the standard model like Higgs boson hh in two Higgs doublet models. We focus on the models with the softly-broken Z2Z_2 symmetry, which is imposed to avoid the flavor changing neutral current. Under the Z2Z_2 symmetry, there are four types of Yukawa interactions. We find that one-loop contributions from extra Higgs bosons modify the hffˉhf\bar{f} couplings to be maximally about 5%5\% under the constraint from perturbative unitarity and vacuum stability. Our results show that the pattern of tree-level deviations by the mixing effect in each type of Yukawa couplings from the SM predictions does not change even including radiative corrections. Moreover, when the gauge couplings hVVhVV (V=W,ZV=W,Z) are found to be slightly (with a percent level) differ from the SM predictions, the hffˉhf\bar{f} couplings also deviate but more largely. Therefore, in such a case, not only can we determine the type of Yukawa couplings but also we can obtain information on the extra Higgs bosons by comparing the predictions with precisely measured hffˉhf\bar{f} and hVVhVV couplings at future electron-positron colliders.
