We continue a previous study of the MSSM Higgs Lagrangian extended by all effective operators of dimension d=6 that can be present beyond the MSSM, consistent with its symmetries. By supersymmetry, such operators also extend the neutralino…
Both parameters in the Higgs field's potential, its mass and quartic coupling, appear fine-tuned to near-critical values, which gives rise to the hierarchy problem and the metastability of the electroweak vacuum. Whereas such behavior…
With the discovery of the Higgs, we have access to a plethora of new physical processes that allow us to further test the SM and beyond. We show a convenient way to parametrize these physics using an effective theory for Higgs couplings,…
We discuss two novel possibilities in Higgs physics. The first is that, by adding a real Higgs triplet to the Standard Model, it is possible for the lightest Higgs boson to be as heavy as 500 GeV without any fine tuning. The second,…
We re-examine the lower bound on the mass of the Higgs boson, $M_H$, from Standard Model vacuum stability including next-to-leading-log radiative corrections. This amounts to work with the full one-loop effective potential, $V(\phi)$,…
For the general two-Higgs doublet model with Yukawa sector of type II (type II 2HDM), the Higgs alignment limit conditions are obtained for the neutral Higgs bosons with indefinite CP-parity $h_1, h_2$ or $h_3$, based on the symbolic…
Several topics related to phenomenology of the Higgs sector in the supersymmetric standard model are reviewed. The upper bound of the lightest Higgs mass in the minimal supersymmetric standard model as well as extended version of it is…
Measuring the Higgs couplings accurately at colliders is one of the best routes for finding physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM). If the measured couplings deviate from the SM predictions, then this would give rise to energy-growing…
Almost all extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of charged Higgs bosons. This talk focuses on the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM), which is relatively predictive. The outlook for detecting…
Now that one has been found, the search for signs of more scalars is a primary task of current and future experiments. In the motivated hypothesis that the extra Higgs bosons of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) be…
We consider supersymmetric scenarios in which the scale of SUSY breaking is low, sqrt{F}=O(TeV). Instead of studying specific models of this type, e.g. those with extra dimensions and low fundamental scale, we follow a model-independent…
We study the lightest Higgs boson decays $h\rightarrow MZ$ in the $\mu$ from $\nu$ supersymmetric standard model ($\mu\nu$SSM), where $M$ is a vector meson $(\rho,\omega,\phi,J/\Psi,\Upsilon)$. Compared to the minimal supersymmetric…
We study the phenomenology of Higgs bosons close to 126 GeV within the scale invariant unconstrained next-to-minimal supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), focusing on the regions of parameter space favoured by low fine-tuning…
We consider extensions of the next-to-minimal supersymmetric model (NMSSM) in which the observed neutrino masses are generated through a TeV scale inverse seesaw mechanism. The new particles associated with this mechanism can have sizable…
We present lower bounds on the Higgs boson mass in the Standard Model with three and four fermion generations SM(3,4), as well as upper bounds on the lightest Higgs boson mass in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the SM with three and…
In the Next-to Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM) deviations from the SM signal strengths of the 125 GeV Higgs boson are expected, because of the mixing with the additional singlet-like Higgs boson and/or additional decays into…
We summarize current constraints on the couplings of the Higgs boson in the framework of an effective theory beyond the Standard Model.

We present a realization of the idea that the Higgs boson is mainly a bound state of neutrinos induced by strong four-fermion interactions. The conflicts of this idea with the measured values of the top quark and Higgs boson masses are…
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…
