We discuss the prospects for charged Higgs boson searches at the LHC, within the two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDM). The 2HDM is generally less constrained than the corresponding sector of the MSSM, but there are still severe theoretical and…
We investigate the recently reported $t\bar{t}$ excess by the CMS Collaboration within the framework of conventional Two-Higgs-Doublet Models (2HDMs). Considering all four types (I, II, X, and Y), we perform a comprehensive parameter space…
The goal of this report is to summarize the current situation and discuss possible search strategies for charged scalars, in non-supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model at the LHC. Such scalars appear in Multi-Higgs-Doublet models…
Predictions for LHC physics are worked out for a two-Higgs-doublet model having four generalized CP symmetries. In this maximally-CP-symmetric model (MCPM) the first fermion family is, at tree level, uncoupled to the Higgs fields and thus…
Upon the absence of signals of new physics at the LHC, a reasonable strategy is to assume that new particles are very heavy and the other model parameters are unknown yet. In the aligned two Higgs doublet model, however, heavy Higgs boson…
We study the most popular scalar extension of the Standard Model, namely the Two Higgs doublet model, extended by a complex triplet scalar (2HDMcT). Such considering model with a very small vacuum expectation value, provides a solution to…
We propose six new benchmark scenarios for Higgs boson searches in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Our calculations follow the recommendations of the LHC Higgs Cross Section Working Group, and benefit from recent developments in…
In this paper, we propose a new Hybrid Quantum Machine Learning (HyQML) framework to improve the sensitivity of double Higgs boson searches in the $HH \to b\bar{b}\gamma\gamma$ final state at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13.6 TeV. The proposed model…
We study the possibility of establishing the production of additional Higgs states in the process $gg,q\bar q\to t\bar t \Phi$, where $\Phi$ = $H_{2,3}$, with $H_2$ being CP-even and $H_3$ being CP-odd, at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC),…
We consider the general Three-Higgs Doublet Model (3HDM) and identify all limits that lead to exact SM alignment. After discussing the underlying symmetries that can naturally enforce such an alignment, we focus on the most economic…
We explore the extent to which future precision measurements of the Standard Model (SM) observables at the proposed $Z$-factories and Higgs factories may have impacts on new physics beyond the Standard Model, as illustrated by studying the…
In 2022, the CDF Collaboration reported the $W$-boson mass, $M_W=80.4335\pm0.0094~\mathrm{GeV}$, which deviates from the Standard Model (SM) prediction, $M_W^{\rm SM}=80.357\pm0.006~\mathrm{GeV}$, by about $7\sigma$. By contrast, the CMS…
We present a complete (non-redundant) basis of CP- and flavour-conserving six-dimensional operators in a two Higgs doublet model (2HDM). We include Z_2-violating operators as well. In such a 2HDM effective field theory (2HDMEFT), we…
Extending the Higgs sector of the Standard Model (SM) by just one additional Higgs doublet field leads to the two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM). In the Type-I $Z_2$-symmetric limit of the 2HDM, all the five new physical Higgs states can be…
The two-Higgs-doublet model with a $U(1)_H$ gauge symmetry (N2HDM-$U(1)$) has several advantages compared to the ``standard'' $Z_2$ version (N2HDM-$Z_2$): It is purely based on gauge symmetries, involves only spontaneous symmetry breaking,…
We investigate origin of three features that are often assumed in analysis of two-Higgs doublet models: (i) softly broken Z2 symmetry, (ii) CP invariant Higgs potential, and (iii) degenerated mass spectra. We extend electroweak gauge…
The complex two-Higgs doublet model is one of the simplest ways to extend the scalar sector of the Standard Model to include a new source of CP-violation. The model has been used as a benchmark model to search for CP-violation at the LHC…
This paper presents a study of a possible contribution to a Higgs boson signal in the $hh\to \gamma\gamma\gamma\gamma$ channel due to $H\to hh$ decays, in the framework of the CP-conserving 2-Higgs Doublet Model Type-I (2HDM-I), where the…
The four LEP collaborations, ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL, have searched for pair-produced charged Higgs bosons in the framework of Two Higgs Doublet Models (2HDMs). The data of the four experiments are statistically combined. The results are…
The same physical reality in Two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) can be described by different Lagrangians. We call this property the reparametrization invariance (in space of Lagrangians) and study corresponding symmetry group and its subgroup…
