We analyse the interplay of generalised CP transformations and the non-Abelian discrete group $T^{\prime}$ and use the semi-direct product $G_f= T^{\prime}\rtimes H_{\text{CP}}$, as family symmetry acting in the lepton sector. The family…
We study the realization of spontaneous CP violation through moduli stabilization. In modular flavor models, the source of CP violation is the vacuum expectation values of the complex structure moduli of toroidal compact space. We…
Four topics in theory of CP violation are reviewed. (a) CP violation in $B$ decays: We describe a new clean way of constraining the angle $\gamma$ of the unitarity triangle and how new CP violation in decay amplitudes can signal new…
We show that, in perturbative string models where the source of CP violation is a complex vacuum expectation value (v.e.v.) for one or more compactification moduli, CP is conserved if a CP transformation acting on the modulus values is an…
Motivated by recent claims questioning the existence of strong CP violation, we present a pedagogical review of CP violation in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). Using fundamental properties of the QCD partition function, we analyze the…
We give a brief review of direct $CP$ violation effects in charmless $B$ decays, both at the inclusive and at the exclusive level. It is emphasized that typical exclusive final states are composed of 2--4 $K$ or $\pi$'s, hence particle…
We find that dilaton dominated supersymmetry breaking and spontaneous CP violation can be achieved in heterotic string models with superpotentials singular at the fixed points of the modular group. A semi--realistic picture of CP violation…
We address the challenging issue of how CP violation is realized in higher dimensional gauge theories without higher dimensional elementary scalar fields. In such theories interactions are basically governed by a gauge principle and…
It is explained that the Standard Model combined charge conjugation and parity transformation (CP) is a simultaneous complex conjugation outer automorphism transformation of gauge and space-time symmetries. Simple examples are given for the…
We study a framework in which fields are labeled by basis elements of a fusion algebra with non-invertible fusion rules. In particular, we consider the case where fields are labeled by conjugacy classes of a finite group rather than its…
It is shown that a two-Higgs doublet model with Vacuum CP Violation and Approximate Global $U(1)$ Family Symmetries (AGUFS) may provide one of the simplest and attractive models in understanding origin and mechanisms of CP violation at the…
Conditions for CP violation in the scalar potential sector of general N-Higgs-doublet models (NHDMs) are analyzed from a group theoretical perspective. For the simplest two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) potential, a minimum set of conditions…
Cosmological models that are locally consistent with general relativity and the standard model in which an object transported around the universe undergoes P, C and CP transformations, are constructed. This leads to generalization of the…
The problem of indirect violation of discrete symmeties CP, T and CPT in a neutral meson system can be described using two complex parameters epsilon and delta, which are invariant under rephasing of meson and quark fields. For the Bd…
CP violation in K and B decays is reviewed in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond the SM. In K decays, one is seeking first evidence for CP violation in direct $K\to \pi\pi$ decays. This would not give a precise quantitative test for the…
The invariant formulation of CP violation involves the generation of sets of invariant constraints for CP conservation, the manipulation of their expressions and the identification of complete and minimal subsets of such constraints. In…
We study four different models for CP violation: the standard (KM) model, the aspon model of spontaneous breaking and two models of soft breaking. In all except the standard model, the strong CP problem is addressed and solved. Testable…
Simply based on CP arguments, we argue against a Standard Model explanation of the baryon asymmetry of the universe in the presence of a first order phase transition. A CP-asymmetry is found in the reflection coefficients of quarks hitting…
Current data from neutrino oscillation experiments are in good agreement with $\delta =-\frac{\pi}{2}$ and $\theta_{23}^{} = \frac{\pi}{4}$. We define the notion of "constrained maximal CP violation" (CMCPV) for predicting these features…
We study the CP phases of the soft supersymmetry breaking terms in string-inspired models with non-universal trilinear couplings. We show that such non-universality plays an important role on all CP violating processes. In particular these…
