It is widely believed that extensions of the minimal Higgs sector is one of the promising directions for resolving many puzzles beyond the Standard Model (SM). In this work, we study the unitarity bounds on the models by extending the…

We study bounds from perturbative unitarity in a Composite 2-Higgs Doublet Model (C2HDM) based on the spontaneous breakdown of a global symmetry $SO(6)\to SO(4)\times SO(2)$ at the compositeness scale $f$. The eight pseudo Nambu-Goldstone…
We use the results of Maher {\em et al.\/} (preceding paper) to construct the matrix of $j=0$ partial-wave two-body and $2\rightarrow3$ scattering amplitudes for the scattering of longitudinally polarized gauge bosons $W_L^\pm$, $Z_L$ and…
We study the unitarity constraint on the two body Higgs boson elastic scattering in the presence of extra dimensions. The contributions from exchange of spin-2 and spin-0 Kaluza-Klein states can have large effect on the partial wave…
We study bounds on Higgs boson masses from perturbative unitarity in the Georgi-Machacek model, whose Higgs sector is composed of a scalar isospin doublet, a real and a complex isospin triplet fields. This model can be compatible with the…
The scattering of $W$, $Z$ and Higgs bosons in the Standard Model is investigated in the region $s,m_H^2\gg m_W^2$ with no restrictions on relative sizes of $s$ and $m_H^2$, so that our results are applicable at energies below as well as…
Upper bounds for neutral as well as charged Higgs boson masses in a two-doublet model are obtained on the basis of tree unitarity conditions \`a la Lee, Quigg and Thacker. A wide variety of scattering processes are considered so extensively…
We study the effects of two-body Higgs boson scattering by exchanging unpsrticles. The unparticle contribution can change the standard model prediction for two-body Higgs boson scattering partial wave amplitude significantly leading to…
We investigate the general two Higgs doublet model imposing both the unitarity conditions and the bounded-from-below conditions. Both types of conditions restrict the ranges of the parameters of the scalar potential. We study the model in…
We calculate the complete matrix of two-body scattering amplitudes for the scattering of longitudinally polarized gauge bosons $W_L^\pm$, $Z_L$ and Higgs bosons to two loops in the high-energy, heavy-Higgs limit $\sqrt{s}\gg M_H\gg M_W$.…
In the standard model, the requirements of vacuum stability and the validity of perturbation theory up to the unification scale force the mass of the Higgs boson to be approximately between 130 GeV and 180 GeV. We re-examine these…
Models with three Higgs doublets (3HDM) are the source of much recent activity, for they are key components of many solutions to the problems of the Standard Model; from extra sources of CP violation to Dark Matter candidates. We compute…
We compute a unitarity bound for higgs mass using one--loop corrected s--wave partial amplitude for $Z_L Z_L \rightarrow Z_L Z_L$ scattering. We use the equivalence theorem and show that the higgs mass has to be less than $\approx 600$ GeV…
We study the Higgs-Higgs scattering process and the possible emergence of a Higgs-Higgs bound state (Higgsonium) in any Higgs potential with the vacuum expectation value and second derivative matching the corresponding values from the…

We study the perturbative unitarity bound given by dimension six derivative interactions consisting of Higgs doublets. These operators emerge from kinetic terms of composite Higgs models or integrating out heavy particles that interact with…
We consider a Z_2-symmetric Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM), where the vacuum expectation values of both doublets are non-vanishing. Unitarity constraints for the SM-like 2HDM are analyzed for the mass of the lightest Higgs boson in the…
We study the scattering of longitudinally polarized W bosons in extensions of the Standard Model where anomalous Higgs couplings to gauge sector and higher order O(p^4) operators are considered. These new couplings with respect to the…
We explore systematically, in a general two Higgs doublet model, the possibility, that bound systems of scalar bosons do exist. We find a wide region of parameter space in the scalar potential for which S-wave bound states of Higgs bosons…
