From the total cross section for the reaction $e^+e^-\to \tau^+\tau^-\gamma$ at the $Z_1$ pole and in the framework of a simplest little Higgs model (SLHM), we get a limit on the characteristic energy scale of the model $f$, $f \geq 5.4$…
The two Higgs doublet model emerges as a minimal scenario in which to address, at the same time, the $\gamma\gamma$ excess at 750 GeV and the lepton flavour violating decay into $\tau^\pm \mu^\mp $ of the 125 GeV Higgs boson. The price to…

Searches for the lepton flavour violating decay $\tau^-\rightarrow \mu^-\mu^+\mu^-$ and the lepton flavour and baryon number violating decays $\tau^-\rightarrow \bar{p}\mu^+\mu^-$ and $\tau^-\rightarrow p\mu^-\mu^-$ have been carried out…

In extended Higgs models, a discrete symmetry is needed in the quark sector to avoid tree-level flavor-changing neutral currents. However, this is not necessary the case in the lepton sector. We consider a model in which one Higgs couples…
We study the lepton flavor violating processes of $\tau^-\to\mu^-PP$ decays with $PP=K^+K^-,K^0\bar{K}^0,\pi^+\pi^-,\pi^0\pi^0$ in the framework of two Higgs doublet model III by virtue of the Chiral Perturbation Theory. In this model, only…
