We study the $z=3$ Horava-Lifshitz QED with a CPT-breaking term, characterized by the axial vector $b_{\mu}$, and perform the one-loop calculations. Explicitly, we demonstrate that just as in the usual Lorentz-breaking QED, in our case, the…

Radiative corrections arising from Lorentz violation in the fermion sector induce a nonzero amplitude for vacuum photon splitting. At one loop, the on-shell amplitude acquires both CPT-even and CPT-odd contributions forbidden in…
We study the decay widths of the processes H^+\to W^+ H^0 (h^0,A^0), including the Lorentz violating effects and analyze the possible CPT violating asymmetry arising from CPT odd coefficients. We observe that these effects are too small to…
