The hierarchy problem can by addressed by extending the four-dimensional space-time to include an extra compact spatial dimension with non-trivial "warped" metric, as first suggested by Randall and Sundrum. If the Randall-Sundrum framework…
We study the phenomenology of a massive graviton $G$ with non-universal couplings to the Standard Model (SM) particles. Such a particle can arise as a warped Kaluza-Klein graviton from a framework of the Randall-Sundrum extra-dimension…
We study the LHC phenomenology of flavor changing Yukawa couplings between top quark, Higgs boson, and either an up or charm quark. Such $tuh$ or $tch$ couplings arise for instance in models in which Higgs sector is extended by the…
The low energy effective theory ($\sim$ TeV) of the little-Higgs model with $SU(6)/Sp(6)$, as proposed by Low, Skiba and Smith (LSS), exhibits a two-Higgs doublet model (2HDM) structure. The symmetry dictates interesting Yukawa patterns,…
We give a comprehensive study from flavor observables of pion, kaon, D_(s), and B_(s) mesons for limiting the Two Higgs Doublet Models (2HDMs) with natural flavor conservation, namely, Z_2 symmetric and aligned type of models. With use of…
We examine experimental constraints on scharm-stop flavor mixing in the minimal supersymmetric standard model, which arise from the experimental bounds on squark and Higgs boson masses, the precision measurements of W-boson mass and the…
In this letter, we construct a model based on a flipped SU(5) partial grand unified theory, within the framework of the Randall-Sundrum (RS1) proposal. Breaking of $\widetilde{SU}(5)$ is achieved using a bulk scalar field in the \textbf{10}…
The Aligned Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (A2HDM) describes a particular way of enlarging the scalar sector of the Standard Model, with a second Higgs doublet which is aligned to first the one in flavour space. This implies the absence of…
We study the radiative lepton flavor violating l_1->l_2\gamma decays in the two Higgs doublet model with localized new Higgs doublet in the Randall Sundrum background. We estimate the contributions of the KK modes of new Higgs bosons and…
One way to detect the presence of new particles in theories beyond the standard model is through their contribution to electroweak loop effects. We comment on the importance of a consistent inclusion of their mixing angles to ensure that…
We update the flavor-violating constraints on the charged Higgs sector of the 2-Higgs Doublet Model Type-III (2HDM-III), using a four-zero texture in the Yukawa matrices. We give a generic Lagrangian of the 2HDM-III. In order to show the…
We discuss issues in an attempt to put the Standard Model (SM) in five-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime compactified on $S^1/Z_2$. The recently-proposed approach to the gauge hierarchy problem by using this background geometry, with the…
We examine signals at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) of Kaluza-Klein modes, in volume-truncated "Little Randall-Sundrum" (LRS) models of flavor, characterized by 5D cutoff scales M_5 that are small compared to the 4D Planck mass M_P ~…
Warped extra dimension claims remarkable success: solving the hierarchy problem; explaining hierarchies in particle phenomenology; yielding standard cosmology, plus interesting nonstandard scenarios. Yet it has marked shortcomings: we…
We show that perturbative unitarity for $W_LW_L$ scattering places significant constraints on the Randall-Sundrum theory with two 3-branes, with matter confined to the TeV brane. The exchange of massive 4D Kaluza-Klein gravitons leads to…
We have investigated the flavor changing top quark physics on the dimension-six anomalous $tq\gamma$ ($q=u,c$) couplings through the process $pp\to p\gamma \gamma p\to p t\bar{q}p$ at the LHC by considering different forward detector…
We study the extension of the Standard Model (SM) with a light dilaton in a five dimensional warped model. In particular, we analyze the coupling of the dilaton with the SM matter fields, compare the model predictions with Electroweak…
In this paper, we propose a new mechanism with warped extra dimension to solve the hierarchy problem, which is parallel to the Randall-Sundrum (RS) brane scenario. Different from the RS scenario, the fundamental scale is TeV scale and the…
We study extensions of the standard model with additional colored scalar fields which can couple directly to quarks. Natural suppression of flavor changing neutral currents implies minimal flavor violation, and fixes the scalars to…
Warped string compactifications, characterized by non-singular behavior of the metric in the infrared (IR), feature departures from the usual anti-de Sitter warped extra dimensions. We study the implications of the smooth IR cutoff for…
