Similar to some other two-Higgs doublet models (2HDM), the flipped 2HDM admits of a light pseudoscalar physical state whose mass can be well below 50 GeV. The fact that the pseudoscalar decays dominantly into a $b{\bar b}$ pair makes its…
In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV can be obtained with moderately heavy scalar top superpartners provided they are highly mixed. The source of this mixing, a soft trilinear stop-stop-Higgs…
I present a model with two scalar doublets and a softly broken $\ztwo$ symmetry, where only one of the doublets gets a vacuum expectation value and couples to fermions at tree-level. The softly broken $\ztwo$ symmetry leads to interesting…
A vast literature on the theory and phenomenology of Two-Higgs-Doublet models (2HDM) exists since long. However, the present situation demands a revisit of some 2HDM properties. Now that a 125 GeV scalar resonance has been discovered at the…
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has measured the Higgs boson couplings with the heavier particles of the Standard Model (SM), and they seem to lay on a single line as function of the particle mass, as predicted in the SM. However a complete…
1. Discussing 2HDM and Higgs potential, we find the parameters range giving naturally weak effects of CP violation and Flavor Changing Neutral Currents. Within this approach, the widely discussed decoupling limit with heavy $H^\pm$, $H$ and…
In a two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM), at the vicinity of the alignment limit, the extra contributions to the couplings of the SM-like Higgs with other particles can be subdominant to the same coming from the six dimensional operators. In…
The Two-Higgs-Doublet model (2HDM) is a simple and viable extension of the Standard Model (SM) with a scalar potential complex enough that two minima may coexist. In this work we investigate if the procedure to identify our vacuum as the…
We study the phenomenology of the two Higgs doublet model with a real singlet scalar $S$ (2HDMS). The model predicts three CP-even Higgses $h_{1,2,3}$, one CP-odd $A^0$ and a pair of charged Higgs. We discuss the consistency of the 2HDMS…
The Dark 2HDM (called also the Inert Doublet Model) is the version of the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model with an exact $Z_2$ symmetry. It contains the SM-like Higgs boson $h$ and dark scalars $H$,$H^+,H^-$,$A$. Only dark scalars have odd $Z_2$…
We propose a simple five-dimensional extension of the Standard Model (SM) without any Higgs potential nor any extra fields. A Higgs doublet lives in the bulk of a flat line segment and its boundary condition is Dirichlet at the ends of the…
The vacuum expectation value $v_s$ of a Higgs triplet field $\Delta$ carrying two units of lepton number $L$ induces neutrino masses $\propto v_s$. The neutral component of $\Delta$ gives rise to two Higgs particles, a pseudoscalar $A$ and…
Properties of the Higgs sector of Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) and existing constraints on its parameters are discussed. Potential of the Photon Linear Collider in testing various Higgs scenarios of 2HDM, including the MSSM, based on the…
Possible realistic scenarios are investigated in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) Higgs sector extended by dimension-six effective operators. The CP-odd Higgs boson with low mass around 30--90 GeV could be consistently…
We consider a Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) constrained by the condition that assures cancellation of quadratic divergences up to the leading two-loop order. Regions in the parameter space consistent with existing experimental constraints…
We study the non-minimal composite Higgs model with global symmetry $\text{SO}(7)$ broken to $\text{SO}(5)\times \text{SO}(2)$. The model results in a composite Two-Higgs doublet model (2HDM) equipped with two extra singlets, the lightest…
We consider the Higgs potential in generalizations of the Standard Model. The possibility of the potential to develop two almost degenerate minima is explored. This would imply that QCD matter at two distinct sets of quark masses is…
Properties of the Z_2-symmetric Two Higgs Doublet Models (2HDM) are discussed and confronted with new LHC data for a 125 GeV Higgs particle. The particle discovered at LHC in 2012 has properties expected for it in the Standard Model (SM),…
A two Higgs doublet model with flavorful Yukawa structure, in which the two doublets give mass to the third and the first two generations respectively, is combined with the twin Higgs mechanism to stabilize the Higgs mass against radiative…
The most general Two Higgs Doublet Model potential without explicit CP violation depends on 10 real independent parameters. Excluding spontaneous CP violation results in two 7 parameter models. Although both models give rise to 5 scalar…
