We study the lepton-flavor violation processes tau ->mu gamma and mu->e gamma in two different examples of models with non-universal soft breaking terms derived from strings. We show that the predictions are quite different from those of…
Lepton flavor violating processes are obtained from the mixing between ordinary leptons and vectorlike SU(2)_L doublet leptons which may originate in E_6. The effects of this lepton mixing are, however, suppressed naturally by the hierarchy…
In the Standard Model, charged lepton flavor violation (CLFV) is heavily suppressed by tiny neutrino mass, while many theoretical models can enhance CLFV effects up to a detectable level. The observation of any CLFV process would be a clear…
We extend the notion of Minimal Flavor Violation to the lepton sector. We introduce a symmetry principle which allows us to express lepton flavor violation in the charged lepton sector in terms of neutrino masses and mixing angles. We…

Within the extended BLMSSM, the exotic Higgs superfields $(\Phi_{NL},\varphi_{NL})$ are added to make the exotic leptons heavy, and the superfields ($Y$,$Y^\prime$) are also introduced to make exotic leptons unstable. This new model is…
There is no guarantee that the violation of lepton number, assuming it exists, will primarily manifest itself in neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$). Lepton-number violation and lepton-flavor violation may be related, and…

B-decays mediated by both charged currents and neutral currents have provided hints of violation of lepton flavour universality. By assuming an explanation of these anomalies in terms of new physics at the TeV scale affecting the third…
The deviations with respect to the Standard Model (SM) that are currently observed in $b \to s \ell\ell$ transitions (the so-called flavour anomalies) can be interpreted in terms of different New Physics (NP) scenarios within a…
The Standard Model parametrization of CP violation is described. Tests of this parametrization using the observed heavy flavour decays and implications for New physics are discussed.
Lepton flavor violation (LFV), observed conclusively in neutrino oscillations, remains a pivotal area of investigation due to its absence in the Standard Model (SM). Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics explores charged lepton flavor…
