The possibility of detecting double flavor violating top quark transitions at future colliders is explored in a model-independent manner using the effective Lagrangian approach through the $t \to u_i\tau \mu$ ($u_i=u,c$) decays. A Yukawa…
In the standard model flavor violating decays of the top quark and of the Higgs boson are highly suppressed. Further, the flavor violating decays of the top and of the Higgs are also small in MSSM and not observable in current or in near…
The rare top quark couplings $tu_i\gamma$ and $tu_i\gamma \gamma$ ($u_i=u,c$) induced at the one-loop level by a flavor violating $tu_iH$ vertex are studied within the context of an effective Yukawa sector that incorporates $SU_L(2)\times…
We study lepton-number-violating (LNV) decays of heavy flavors ($\tau$ lepton and top quark) induced by doubly-charged Higgs boson in the Higgs triplet model. It is found that the branching fractions of LNV $\tau^- \to \ell^{+}M_1^-M_2^-$…

Analyticity and unitarity constrain certain classe of new physics models by linking flavor-conserving and flavor-violating four-fermion interactions. In this work, we explore how these theoretical relations impact flavor-violating rare top…
Run-I results from the CMS collaboration show an excess of events in the decay $h \to \mu \tau_e$ with a local significances of 2.4$\sigma$. This could be the first hint of flavour violation in the Higgs sector. We summarise the bounds on…

We study a class of nonstandard interactions of the newly discovered 125 GeV Higgs-like resonance that are especially interesting probes of new physics: flavor violating Higgs couplings to leptons and quarks. These interaction can arise in…
A discovery of the flavor violating decay h --> tau mu at the LHC would require extra sources of electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) beyond the Higgs in order to reconcile it with the bounds from tau --> mu gamma, barring fine-tuned…
We study a version of Two Higgs Doublet Models with non-standard flavor violation in the up quark sector. We find branching ratios for the rare top decays $t\to hc$ and $t\to hu$ that are within reach of current and future colliders, while…
We consider lepton flavour violating decays of the top quark, mediated by four-fermion operators. We compile constraints on a complete set of SU(3)*U(1)-invariant operators, arising from their loop contributions to rare decays and from…

A search for the lepton-flavor-violating decay of the tau into one charged lepton and two charged hadrons has been performed using $221.4 \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected at an $e^+e^-$ center-of-mass energy around 10.58 GeV with the…
Inspired by the recent CMS $h \to \mu\tau$ excess, we calculate the lepton flavor violating Higgs decay $h \to \mu\tau$ in the littlest Higgs model with T-parity (LHT). Under the constraints of $\ell_i \to \ell_j \gamma$, $Z \to \ell_i…
Possible non-standard tuZ and tcZ interactions, which induce flavor-changing neutral-current decays of the top quark, are studied in the effective-Lagrangian framework. The corresponding Lagrangian consists of four kinds of non-standard…
