New physics thresholds which can modify the diphoton and dilepton Higgs branching ratios significantly may also provide new sources of CP and lepton flavor violation. We find that limits on electric dipole moments impose strong constraints…
In this work, we have studied lepton flavor violating (LFV) decays of $Z$ gauge boson and Higgs boson ($H$) in the scotogenic model. We have computed branching ratios for the decays $Z\to\ell_\alpha\ell_\beta$ and…
Motivated by the recent CMS excess in a flavor violating Higgs decay $h \rightarrow \mu \tau$ as well as the anomaly of muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon g-2), we consider a scenario where both the excess in $h \rightarrow \mu \tau$ and…
A search for flavor-changing neutral current interactions of the top quark (t) and the Higgs boson (H) is presented. The search is based on proton-proton collision data collected in 2016-2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the…
In this work we present a model-independent search strategy at the LHC for heavy Higgs bosons decaying into a tau and a muon, $H/A \rightarrow \tau\mu$, showing a plausible tendency to improve the sensitivity obtained by the present…
Recent observations of neutrino oscillations imply non-zero neutrino masses and flavor violation in the lepton sector, most economically explained by the seesaw mechanism. Within the context of supersymmetry, lepton flavor violation (LFV)…
We study a new signature of lepton flavor violation (LFV) at the Photon Collider (PC) within Supersymmetric (SUSY) theories. We consider the minimal supersymmetric standard model within a large $\tan\beta$ scenario with all superpartner…
Flavor violating Higgs signals, such as the top FCNC decay $t\to ch^0$ and the LFV Higgs decay $h^0\to \tau\mu$, have been studied at the LHC. These signals can arise within the general Two-Higgs doublet model (THDM), where each Higgs…
We estimate the smallest branching ratio for the Higgs decay channel $h \rightarrow \mu \tau$, which can be probed at an $e^+e^-$ collider and compare it with the projected reach at the high-luminosity run of the LHC. Using a…
$U(1)_X$SSM is the extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) and its local gauge group is $SU(3)_C\times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y \times U(1)_X$. We study lepton flavor violating (LFV) decays…
A two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) is one of the minimal extensions of the Standard Model (SM), and it is well-known that the general setup predicts the flavor-violating phenomena, mediated by neutral Higgs interactions. Recently the CMS…
We study the LFV Higgs production processes $e^-\gamma\to\ell^-\phi\;(\ell=\mu,\tau; \phi=H, A)$ as a probe of Higgs mediated LFV couplings at an electron-photon collider, where $H$ and $A$ are extra CP even and odd Higgs bosons,…
Till today lepton flavor violation has not been observed in processes involving charged leptons. Hence, a search for it is under hot pursuit both in theories and experiments. In our current work, we investigate the rates of rare decay…
We study the flavor-changing couplings of the Higgs-boson with the top-quark using the processes: (a) pp --> tt, (b) pp --> t_bar j, and, (c) pp --> t_bar j h at the LHC in light of current discovery of a 126 GeV Higgs-Boson. Sensitivities…
Inspired by a significance of $2.4\sigma$ in $h\to \mu \tau$ decay observed by CMS at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV, we investigate the Higgs lepton flavor violating effects in the generic two-Higgs-doublet model (GTHDM), where the lepton flavor…
We analyze the Lepton Flavor Violating (LFV) Higgs decay h -> tau mu in three supersymmetric models: Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), Supersymmetric Seesaw Model (SSM), and Supersymmetric B-L model with Inverse Seesaw…
Searches for exotic decays of the 125 GeV Higgs boson performed with data collected by the CMS experiment are presented. Three classes of searches are detailed: searches for invisible decays of the Higgs boson, searches for lepton flavor…
We study lepton flavor violation in a class of supersymmetric models with light sgoldstino - scalar superpartner of Goldstone fermions responsible for spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. Sgoldstino couplings to the Standard Model (SM)…
We present two recent developments on lepton flavour violation in the MSSM. 1) The supersymmetric seesaw mechanism can be realized through the exchange of heavy SU(2)_W-triplet states, rather than `right-handed' neutrinos. In this scenario…
Flavour-violating Higgs interactions are suppressed in the Standard Model such that their observation would be a clear sign of new physics. We investigate the prospects for detecting quark flavour-violating Higgs decays in the clean ILC…
