Relevance of the discrete symmetries for explanation of the observed flavor structures in the leptonic sector is considered. Achievements of the "traditional'' discrete symmetry approach and the modular symmetry approach are confronted.…
The top quark forward-backward asymmetry A_{FB}^t measured at the Tevatron is above the Standard Model prediction by more than 2-sigma deviation, which might be a harbinger for new physics. In this work we examine the contribution to…
Until now the focus within the direct search for supersymmetry has mainly been on flavour diagonal observables. Recently lepton flavour violating signals at future electron positron colliders have been studied. There is now an opportunity…
We study and analyze the recent observations of the top pair production $\sigma (p\bar p\to t \bar t)$ at TeVatron through flavor conserving and flavor violating channels ${\it via}$ vector and tensor unparticles. The unparticle sector is…
The flavor democracy hypothesis was introduced in seventies taking in mind three Standard Model (SM) families. Later, this idea was disfavored by the large value of the t-quark mass. In nineties the hypothesis was revisited assuming that…
It is shown that the hierarchical structure of the quark mass terms in the standard model suggests a new description of the flavor mixing. The latter is primarily a heavy quark mixing involving the t and b quarks, followed by a mixing…
Flavor singlet combinations of quark operators ${\cal{O}}_S^{\Gamma} = \bar{u}\Gamma u + \bar{d}\Gamma d + \bar{s}\Gamma s$ contribute to many important physical observables in the low energy region of QCD. Experimentally one finds the…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author. I suggest a new particle model to solve simultaneously the problems of fermion masses and flavor mixings, and baryon asymmetry and dark matter. The model extends the standard model by adding a…
The mass matrix forms of quarks and leptons are discussed in theory with permutation flavor symmetry. The structure of scalar potential is analyzed in case that electroweak doublet Higgs fields have non-trivial flavor symmetry charges. We…
If the underlying flavor symmetry is Abelian, quark mixings in $d_R$ sector are the most prominent. Such flavor violating effects can reveal itself through $\tilde d_R$ squark mixings if supersymmetry is realized in Nature. Quark-squark…
If low energy supersymmetry is realized in nature it is possible that a first generation linear collider will only have access to some of the superpartners with electroweak quantum numbers. Among these, sleptons can provide sensitive probes…
We propose an extra-dimension framework on the orbifold $S^1/Z_2$ for understanding the origin of the fermion mass and mixing hierarchies. Introducing the flavor symmetry $G_F(=${\it non-Abelian}$\times${\it Abelian}) as well as the extra…
New colour octets stand out among the new physics proposals to explain the anomalous forward-backward asymmetry measured in $t \bar t$ production by the CDF experiment at the Tevatron. We perform a fit to $t \bar t$ observables at the…
We re-examine the possibility that the solution to the supersymmetric flavor problem is related to small mixing angles in gaugino couplings induced by approximate horizontal Abelian symmetries. We prove that, for a large class of models,…
We present the general behavior of the scalar sector in a Three Higgs Doublet Model (3HDM) with a $\mathbb{Z}_5$ flavor symmetry. There are regions of the parameters space where it is possible to get a SM-like Higgs boson with the other…
The Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity (LHT) contains new sources of flavor and CP violation both in the quark and lepton sector. These have their origin in interactions of ordinary fermions with mirror fermions mediated by new heavy gauge…
We consider models for physics beyond the standard model in which supersymmetry is broken spontaneously near the weak scale by fields that are charged under electroweak symmetry. We show that this is possible if some or all of the light…
We discuss the proper starting point to look into flavor physics under the perspective of solving the hierarchy problem with the little Higgs mechanism -- the construction of anomaly free fermionic spectra of the effective theory of…
The top forward-backward asymmetry (tAFB) measured at the Tevatron remains one of the most puzzling outstanding collider anomalies. After two years of LHC running, however, few models for tAFB remain consistent with LHC data. In this paper…
Despite the immense success of the Standard Model, the hunt for physics beyond the Standard Model has continued. Extension of the SM gauge group or the particle content of the SM remains a viable solution to many observed anomalies, such as…
